And I would fight little fights in student government.

Like I was in middle school, like the mirrors in the bathroom were plastic.

And I was like, we need...

real mirrors I'm gonna fight for real mirrors in the bathroom but that was kind of the start so that is amazing and I love hearing stories like that because a lot of times when you are born into a small country town we don't have a lot of the outlets that most kids in the city have so to be able to

have a Jesse Jackson come to your town, you know, to show you this is what real advocacy looks like and what standing up for the right thing looks like.

I'm sure that was very pivotal.

Yeah.

It was something, you know, what's interesting.

You think about like what we had, what we didn't have.

I mean, like, this is like, you know, we had the big satellite dishes because we didn't have like, we only had like three channels, right?

We barely had NBC because it was really in Charleston, which is like two hours away.

So I guess we didn't get signals.

So you had like...

you know channel 13 channel 15 anybody who's watching this I know there's some you know I know y'all are here from South Carolina y'all if y'all from like where I'm from Florence County you know then the channel 13 and channel 15 and then Fox came like a couple of years later but we had like three channels and then like you were lucky to you know get a satellite and like and then

That's crazy.

We didn't have.

Yeah.

You're like the star of the town.

I'm well known for like, you know, coming out of Johnsonville because it's interesting because anytime I've ever done an interview or any magazine ever like writes about me, I'm very, very like conscious and I'm very like deliberate about them printing that I am from Johnsonville, South Carolina.

Because to me, I'm like, I'm so proud of like being from this small town.
