Imagine if a white Republican mayor from outside of Jackson did half the things Jackson, Mississippi Mayor Chokwe Antar Lumumba has done. If the garbage went uncollected for a week, let alone a month, or if the water was cut off for more than a day due to incompetence? Man, the backlash would be intense. Bubba, Billy Bob, and even some white Pookies would show up, mad as hell but ready to fix it. They'd be there with backhoes, bulldozers, and shovels, running jumper cables from their trucks to generators, trying to get the water plant running again. After they got things sorted, the community wouldn't just stop there. Using Butch Lee in Brandon as an example, or Jake Windham in Pearl, or any mayor - they'd be run out of town with pitchforks and tiki torches that very night. The tolerance for such failures in leadership would be zero
