For three years, Patrick Braxton says he has experienced harassment and intimidation after becoming the first Black mayor in Newbern, Alabama.
Wow this is fucked up. I hope this makes national news, but I am not holding my breath…
This is madness. This is 2023?
THIS. IS. ALABAMA.
Preventing an elected mayor from serving sounds like a violation of democracy. Their Spouses/Siblings must be very disappointed in them.
'Bama!*

The town is 85% Black, and 69% of Black people here live below the poverty line.
What the actual fuck? This is like finding a primitive, isolated tribe. This shouldn’t be a thing in the 21st century.

What the actual fuck?
Rural red state America.
This shouldn’t be a thing in the 21st century.
Shouldn’t be. Is anyway.
