** This episode includes discussion of SA . Joy Taylor, Hayley and Spex take on a heavy week of news. First up is the Cornell 7 lawsuit. A former student is suing the university, a fraternity and seven current or former members over an alleged 2024 assault. That leads into a deeper conversation about victim blaming, institutional failure, the 57 men in the group chat who did nothing, and what parents of boys need to be teaching at home. Joy looks back on the buddy-system rules she and her friends lived by in college 20+ years ago, and why nothing has changed. Then the crew reacts to Nicki Minaj's Fox interview with Lara Trump and her comments on Democrats and pop culture. That turns into a real-talk plea ahead of the midterms: register, research your ballot, ask questions, and stop taking political cues from celebrities.

Rickey kicks off the show with a powerful prayer from gospel legend Bishop Marvin Sapp, but things heat up fast when the news turns to the mysterious death of 18-year-old Nolan Wells. New autopsy details reveal shocking findings that have Rickey fired up and comparing the case to Emmett Till — but what exactly was found that has everyone questioning the grand jury's ruling? Then, Brat brings the heat in the Hot Spot with a story about OutKast suing an Oakland rapper over his name. Is "Ovrkast" too close for comfort, or is this a reach? We also shine a light on a Negro Leagues baseball Hall of Famer you've probably never heard of, and the crew debates which slang words deserve a spot in the dictionary. Oh, and Darius calls in with the most ridiculous excuse for missing work you've ever heard.

This is the deep dive you need to hear. The Rickey Smiley Morning Show sits down with civil rights attorney Ben Crump for a raw, unfiltered conversation about the mysterious death of 18-year-old Nolan Wells in Mississippi. New forensic evidence shows there was no water found in his lungs, stomach, or throat — yet a grand jury ruled his death an accidental drowning. Ben Crump walks through the recovered Snapchat messages, GPS data, and the two-inch gashes on the back of Nolan's head that nobody can explain away. Rickey asks the questions everyone is thinking: Can they go back to the grand jury? What happens when the federal government is controlled by an administration that won't help? And what did the governor of Mississippi say about Crump and Reverend Al that proves this case is bigger than one young man? Ben compares this fight to the days of Dr. King, Thurgood Marshall, and Emmett Till — and reveals what he found in those Snapchat messages that has him refusing to back down. This isn't just a story about one case. It's about whether Black parents will ever be allowed to get justice in America. Press play and hear what Ben Crump says about the secret grand jury process and why the silence of friends is more dangerous than the attacks of enemies.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On Sept. 23, 1955, an all-white jury in Mississippi acquitted Roy Bryant and J.W. Milam of murdering 14-year-old Emmett Till. Months later, the two men admitted to killing Till in a magazine article, but double jeopardy prevented another murder trial.

Mayer is the award-winning author of When the Children Marched: The Birmingham Civil Rights Movement and the editor of The Civil Rights Act of 1964. As a teacher, Mayer's passion continues to be making history relevant and accessible to young people. His time spent in Jackson, Canton, and McComb, Mississippi, as well as meeting scholars and activists integral to the civil rights movement, fueled the desire to write In the Name of Emmett Till. He lives in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, with his wife Jan, where he writes, teaches, and tutors youth in a local middle school.The 2002 BAFTA, SAC, Critics Choice Award Balloted Movie “Till” lead actress Danielle Deadwyler gives an unforgettable performance as Mamie Till-Mobley, showing deep grief and fierce. Mamie's actions galvanized the Civil Rights Act of 1957. She dedicated her life to teaching children while continuing to fight for civil rights in America. The 1955 murder of Emmett Till in Mississippi is widely remembered as one of the most horrible lynching's in American history. African American children old enough that year to be aware personally felt the terror of Till's murder. These children, however, would rise up against the culture that made Till's death possible. Over the next decade, from the violent Woolworth's lunch-counter sit-ins in Jackson to the school walkouts of McComb, the young people of Mississippi picketed, boycotted, organized, spoke out, and marched, determined to reveal the vulnerability of black bodies and the ugly nature of the world they lived in.

**Activist interrupts Jackson City Council over a “lynching problem” that the facts still haven't produced.** Celina Charles drove down from Little Rock, skipped the public-comment signup, and hijacked Tuesday's meeting to accuse city and state leaders of ignoring what she called a lynching epidemic in Jackson. She named Tasia Fortune and Demartravion “Trey” Reed, demanded answers, and kept talking while Council President Vernon Hartley banged the gavel. Police Chief RaShall Brackney walked her out. No cuffs. Mission accomplished: scene made. **What's actually on the record** - Tasia Fortune, 29, mother of four, found hanging from a tree behind a vacant house on Road of Remembrance on Aug. 3. State medical examiner completed an autopsy weeks ago; results still not released to JPD. Chief Brackney says the case has been worked as a homicide from day one and warns against calling these “serial” race incidents. A person of interest, Terrence Anderson, was already locked up on a felon-in-possession charge after an argument with Fortune. - Trey Reed, Delta State student, found hanging on campus in September 2025. State ME ruled suicide. Family and activists still reject it. - Rasheem Carter (Taylorsville, 2022) also gets folded into the same narrative. - Ward 3 Councilman Kenneth Stokes wants the U.S. Attorney in the Fortune case and keeps invoking Emmett Till. He has no federal response yet. Charles says she's coming back for a march Friday focused on Fortune, Reed, “and all these lives.” Flyer has a hashtag and no location. Downtown Jackson is the default. South Jackson, West Jackson, and Northside Drive—where the bodies actually pile up—are not on the itinerary. Jackson remains one of the deadliest cities in America, overwhelmingly Black-on-Black. Officials sat on a simple public statement for a month while the lynching rumor did the work of keeping eyes off the homicide spike. Brackney finally said the quiet part: a lot of misinformation, don't treat these as a connected racial campaign. That should have been the first presser, not the one after an out-of-town activist crashed council. False lynching claims don't just waste oxygen. They torch whatever's left of race relations and give every actual killer a convenient fog.
En août 1955, Emmett Till, un adolescent noir de 14 ans venu de Chicago, passe ses vacances dans le Mississippi ségrégationniste. Après avoir sifflé en sortant d'une épicerie tenue par une femme blanche, il est accusé de lui avoir manqué de respect. Quelques jours plus tard, Roy Bryant et J.W. Milam l'enlèvent au domicile de son oncle. Son corps mutilé est retrouvé dans la rivière Tallahatchie. Sa mère, Mamie Till, décide alors d'exposer son cercueil ouvert afin que le monde découvre la violence dont son fils a été victime. Les photographies de son corps, publiées dans la presse afro-américaine, provoquent une immense onde de choc aux États-Unis. Malgré les témoignages, les deux hommes accusés du meurtre sont acquittés par un jury entièrement blanc. Ce verdict nourrit encore davantage l'indignation face à la ségrégation et aux injustices raciales. Quelques mois plus tard, Rosa Parks et Martin Luther King deviennent les figures d'une mobilisation historique pour les droits civiques. Le meurtre d'Emmett Till restera ainsi l'un des événements déclencheurs du mouvement américain des droits civiques.

In PART I of this conversation, Brad Onishi and Robert P. Jones (author of Backslide: Reclaiming a Faith in a Nation after the Christian Turn Against Democracy) discuss what they call the "war on empathy" within segments of white Christianity in the United States. Robert argues that voices like Allie Beth Stuckey, Joe Rigney, and Elon Musk framing empathy as sinful serves as a theological retrofit that gives people permission to support policies—like mass deportation and detention—that their deeper moral instincts would otherwise reject. Drawing parallels to 1933 Germany, the civil rights era (Emmett Till, Birmingham), and more recent events (George Floyd's murder, January 6th), the two explore how this ideology trains people to override empathetic responses to visible suffering and even to deny documented reality altogether, a phenomenon they tie to Hannah Arendt's writing on self-deception under authoritarian regimes. The conversation closes with a brief teaser about Robby's book concept of "embracing division," which argues polarization is not the core problem in American politics but rather a symptom of a broken system and rising anti-democratic forces. Books mentioned:
This Day in Legal History: The Murder of Emmett TillOn August 28, 1955, fourteen-year-old Emmett Till was abducted, tortured, and murdered in the Mississippi Delta by two white men, Roy Bryant and J.W. Milam, after Till—a Black teenager visiting from Chicago—was accused of offending a white woman in a grocery store. His killers beat him, shot him, weighted his body, and threw it in the Tallahatchie River. He was a child, and his murder, and what came after, helped ignite the modern civil rights movement.The legal story is one of justice utterly failing, and then, slowly, refusing to disappear. Bryant and Milam were tried the next month in a segregated Mississippi courtroom. The trial lasted five days; the all-white, all-male jury deliberated for barely an hour before acquitting both men, with one juror later saying it wouldn't have taken that long if they hadn't stopped for a soda. Protected by double jeopardy, the two men then sold their confession to a magazine for a few thousand dollars, describing in detail how they'd killed the boy they had just been acquitted of murdering. It was one of the starkest demonstrations imaginable that the machinery of Southern justice was not built to deliver justice to Black victims.The significance of August 28, 1955 reaches across the decades. Emmett's mother, Mamie Till-Mobley, made the searing decision to hold an open-casket funeral and let the world photograph her son. That act of witness galvanized a generation. And there is a haunting piece of calendar symmetry worth honoring: exactly eight years later, on August 28, 1963, Martin Luther King Jr. stood at the Lincoln Memorial and delivered the “I Have a Dream” speech to the March on Washington. The law eventually, partially, caught up—the Civil Rights Act, the Voting Rights Act, and, only in 2022, a federal anti-lynching law that bears Emmett Till's name. It's a reminder that some of the most important developments in American law began not in a courtroom win, but in a courtroom failure so profound that the country could not look away.The brothers Andrew and Tristan Tate were back in a Miami federal courtroom this week, shackled, asking a judge to release them on bond while they fight extradition to the United Kingdom. The two, who have built a massive and controversial online following, have been held in a federal detention center since their July arrest on U.K. rape and sex-trafficking charges. Their lawyers made a pointed argument: if Romania, where the brothers face a separate sex-crimes case, is willing to let them remain free pending those proceedings, then a U.S. court should free them too—especially since, they argue, two of the most recognizable men on the internet can't exactly disappear. Prosecutors pushed back hard, and here the law is decidedly against the Tates. In ordinary criminal cases, release pending trial is the norm. But international extradition is different: there is a strong, long-standing presumption against bail, rooted in the idea that the United States has a treaty obligation to actually produce the person for the requesting country, and that letting an extradition target go free risks a diplomatic and legal failure if they flee. Courts generally require “special circumstances” to grant bail in an extradition case—a demanding standard—and prosecutors noted the brothers have money and have bragged about holding multiple passports. Legal experts quoted in the coverage thought it unlikely they'd win release. The significance is a useful window into a corner of the law most people never see: that fighting extradition is not like fighting ordinary charges, and the presumption of liberty that normally protects defendants is largely flipped when a foreign government is waiting to prosecute.Tate brothers press for release from US jail during extradition fight | ReutersPBS NewsHour · NPRA federal appeals court has cleared a significant hurdle for Bayer's $7.25 billion settlement of tens of thousands of Roundup cancer claims. The Eighth Circuit dismissed a challenge by a group of objecting plaintiffs who were trying to derail the deal—and the fight was about forum, which sounds dry but matters enormously in mass litigation. Bayer structured this as a class-action settlement in Missouri state court, an unusual move: it's using a single state-court proceeding to try to resolve claims nationwide. The objectors argued that a state court has no business fast-tracking a nationwide resolution, and that the whole thing belongs in front of the federal judge already overseeing the consolidated federal Roundup litigation. A federal judge ruled in June that the case could stay in Missouri state court, and now the Eighth Circuit has agreed, dismissing the appeal. Why does the forum matter so much? Because a settlement that binds a nationwide class of people—including people who haven't actively participated—raises real due-process questions about whether a single state court can bind absent claimants across the country, and because plaintiffs and defendants often have strong strategic preferences about which court, and which rules, govern a mega-settlement. This connects to the Bayer story we covered earlier this summer, when the Supreme Court handed the company a big win on failure-to-warn claims; this settlement is the other half of Bayer's campaign to finally contain a decade of Roundup litigation. A hearing to approve the deal is set for September 14, with roughly 65,000 claims hanging in the balance. The significance is that Bayer is close to buying its way out of a liability that has dogged it for years—and the courts just removed one of the last procedural obstacles.US court dismisses appeal over objections to $7.25 billion Roundup deal | ReutersRTÉ · Maryland Daily RecordAnd finally—though this is anything but a footnote—the biggest story of the week, and arguably the summer: Meta has agreed to pay up to $18 billion and fundamentally change how its apps work for teenagers, settling the landmark case accusing it of designing Facebook and Instagram to addict children. This is the resolution of the very trial we watched begin just ten days ago—the 29-state case in Oakland, with the whistleblower testimony from Arturo Bejar. Rather than let it run to a verdict, Meta settled, and the numbers are staggering: more than $17.6 billion to 48 states, D.C., Puerto Rico, and the territories, plus another $459 million to resolve privacy claims tied to the old Cambridge Analytica scandal. But the money may be the less important part. For the next decade, Meta has agreed to concrete design changes: teens will be capped at two hours a day on the apps, and blocked from using them between midnight and 6 a.m. without a parent's consent. And in a clever pressure mechanism, part of the payout is contingent on whether YouTube and TikTok adopt similar protections—effectively using this settlement to try to move the whole industry. Everything we've tracked all summer led here: the New Mexico verdict, the Tennessee trial, the bellwether cases, the Ninth Circuit clearing these suits past Section 230. This is the reckoning arriving. It still needs approval from Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers, who presided over the trial, but if it holds, it's one of the largest consumer-protection settlements in American history—and, more consequentially, the first time a court-supervised deal will reach inside these platforms and re-engineer them for the safety of kids. The era of treating social media's effect on children as an unregulated externality may have just ended, not with a verdict, but with $18 billion and a clock that shuts the app off at midnight.Meta reaches $18 billion of settlements over children's social media addiction | ReutersCNN · Al Jazeera This is a public episode.

Here is the shape of it. In 1955, American television had no memory. A play aired live, once, and it was gone: no rerun, no archive, no second pressing. Serling wrote a play called Patterns, and the country went so crazy for it that the critic at the New York Times closed his column with ten words that had no mechanism under them: "a repeat performance at an early date should be mandatory." There was no mandatory in 1955. So the network bought the play a second time and performed the identical play live again, because the only instrument the medium owned for showing a thing twice was human beings. That was the economy Serling worked in. And when he tried to tell the Emmett Till story in that economy, twice, in 1956 and 1958, the sponsors and the agencies and the network censors sanded his plays into other states, other decades, other people.

The Context of White Supremacy hosts the Counter-Racist Weekly Review 07/25/26. This broadcast examines current events from across the globe to learn what's happening in all areas of people activity. We cultivate Counter-Racist Media Literacy by scrutinizing journalists' word choices and using logic to deconstruct what is reported as "news." We'll use these sessions to hone our use of terms as tools to reveal truth and neutralize Racists/White people. #ANTIBLACKNESS This week, we analyze the global distribution of resource extraction, judicial shielding of white killers, and institutionalized state violence: The Geopolitics of Resource Extraction: We dissect the strategic maneuvers surrounding the massive $25 billion Nigeria-Morocco Gas Pipeline project designed to power West Africa. We look at BBC World Service reports tracking the economic and infrastructural warfare dictating energy grids across the African continent, contrasting this with international developments where Spain shattered Argentina's World Cup dreams. We apply counter-racist logic to show how global white power interests control and redirect indigenous non-white wealth. Judicial Shielding & State-Sanctioned Execution: We investigate the rapid legal protections afforded to white youth killers as Colt Gray enters a guilty plea following state school violence. We contrast this systemic buffering with horrific reports of a 78-year-old Decatur female who overdosed on fentanyl following an alleged police blunder, alongside breaking cases where Baltimore police investigate an active "hate crime" in Fells Point. We expose how the courts work concurrently with enforcement wings to shield White Supremacist perpetrators while leaving black victims entirely unprotected. The Industry of Clemency & Corporate Surveillance Grids: We decode the growing industry of presidential pardons where massive bribes—including $600 for a presidential pardon—are weaponized within the federal clemency complex. We couple this with local news reports tracking a municipal deputy sheriff accused of systemic corruption in Bucks County, exposing how legal and administrative offices are engineered together to commodify justice while weaponizing municipal resources against non-white autonomy. The Erasure of Black Historical Reality: We break down the absolute peak of state hypocrisy out of Illinois where Governor JB Pritzker signs a law officially designating July 25 as Emmett Till Day. We analyze this symbolic political performance alongside breaking Madison, Wisconsin reports where a black male was shot and killed by police, sparking intense community protests and forcing Corey Ruiz's family to make public calls for basic justice. We deconstruct how The System uses hollow holidays and cosmetic benefits to distract the collective from ongoing state executions on the concrete. #EndStageWhiteSupremacy #TheCOWS17Years #CounterRacism #MediaLiteracy #EmmettTillDay #ColtGray #DanielErving #NolanWells INVEST in The COWS!

Join Jim and Greg for the Friday 3 Martini Lunch. Today, they sift through the wild Democratic primary for governor in Wisconsin, Islamist attacks in New York City described as mental health issues, USA Today's bonkers column tying defenders of the WNBA's Caitlin Clark to lynch mobs in the 1960s, and the government failing to track hundreds of billions in grants to the states.First, they dig into the dysfunctional Democratic primary for governor in the Badger State. The frontrunner is an avowed Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) candidate. The governor's preferred candidate had to drop out because her own staff cooked the books and the campaign ran out of money. And the other candidates are a mess too. Jim and Greg pop the popcorn.Next, they sigh as two obvious Islamist extremist stabbings in New York City get described as possible hate crimes but also possible mental health issues. They also wince while remembering that Mamdani will play a prominent role in the 25th anniversary observances of 9/11 terrorist attacks in just a few weeks.Then, they rip USA Today sports columnist and relentless woke warrior Nancy Armour for denouncing defenders of Caitlin Clark as white nationalists and comparing them to the lynch mob that killed Emmett Till in 1955. Jim and Greg discuss the insanity of that analogy. Jim also details how the WNBA is thoroughly committed to financial failure.Finally, they groan as a new watchdog report shows that we cannot trace the final destination of nearly 75 percent of $958.6 billion in state grants.Please visit our great sponsors: LarinecoRight now, Larineco is offering our listeners up to 50% off at https://BuyLarine.com/3MLNoble GoldOwn the metal the future depends on with the help of Noble Gold.

Aaron McIntire dives into the wonderful world of women's athletics, starting with WNBA star Sophie Cunningham standing firm on protecting female sports from male competitors despite backlash, and Megan Rapinoe's sharp rebuttal on The View. He covers the firestorm around USA Today columnist Nancy Armour's column linking Caitlin Clark's on-court flopping to the 1955 lynching of Emmett Till. Aaron also touches on Secretary of State Marco Rubio's update on Iran's overtures for a deal, a Washington congressional candidate's admission she downplays LGBTQ support to avoid alienating Muslim voters, and Mike Lindell's controversial immigration proposal in the Minnesota governor's race. He closes out the week with a full Ask Or Tell Me Anything, covering AI in education, agentic AI risks, and listener questions on faith and current events.
In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, President Trump's pressure on federal prosecutors to charge noncitizens with voting illegally has produced just a handful of cases, with others falling away as investigators find innocent explanations or struggle to prove bad intent. Prosecutors typically assume a jury would not convict someone if they accidentally or mistakenly cast a ballot. Tuesday's announcement focused on a software error in New Jersey's motor vehicle system incorrectly registered 6,600 people, about 400 of whom went on to cast ballots. Also ex-CNN anchor Brooke Baldwin gets stunningly candid about her sex life: ‘pretty damn good' / a USA Today writer invokes Emmett Till saying Caitlin Clark puts black and queer players 'in danger' by flopping / and US jobless claims are the lowest in 60 years.

**Episode #1261 – The Clay Edwards Show with Creston Berch** More testosterone for your morning drive. Clay and Creston Berch open with steak talk (patio cuts vs. ribeye, air-fryer cubes, meal prep, and a shout-out to Grills of Mississippi for getting the pellet smoker fixed), then hit the 39th annual Mississippi Wildlife Extravaganza in Pearl this weekend—kids free, adults $10 throwback pricing—while noting the competing event at the fairgrounds and the old backwater/pump rift that caused the split. They dig into the data-center push around Jackson and Lake Hico: the deal is done, the six-month “moratorium” is about minority set-asides and political cutouts, electrical and HVAC trades are about to cash in for years, and Fred Shanks nails the real choice—American control of the AI race or Chinese control. No conspiracy required. Main segment: Sophie Cunningham's ESPN interview standing up for biological women and girls in sports, the quiet history of a female-to-male player already in the WNBA, Brittney Griner speculation, Magic Johnson's son as the ultimate “what if,” and why Clay thinks the league that pushed every social-justice fad deserves the FAFO of actual men taking roster spots. Bonus: the USA Today columnist who dragged Emmett Till into a Caitlin Clark complaint and had to walk it back. Derek calls in on the Nolan Wells case—boat culture, bilge pumps, planing out, and why people who've never been on a small pleasure boat keep spreading nonsense. Quick recommendation for Chris Williamson's interview with Annie Jacobsen on the first six days of a bioweapon outbreak. Berry's Seafood ends its free birthday buffet (culture and tipping are the reason). Closing open-mic on Black Lives Matter's “Black people are tired” post—wrong answers only—plus the usual culture-rot notes on public-space respect, speaker-phone etiquette, and why claiming everything is racism means nothing is.
Caitlin Clark and her fanbase are once again being unfairly demonized…by the mainstream media. This week…Nancy Armour published a scathing article in USA Today…accusing Caitlin Clark fans of discrimination and associating Caitlin Clark with Emmett Till.

We explain the real reason that…the media has disdain for Caitlin Clark. We also discuss rumors of WNBA commissioner Cathy Engelbert being fired…and explain why the WNBA is an impossible league to lead.

USA Today's Nancy Armour is under fire after claiming Caitlin Clark's fans are "white nationalists" and demanding Clark apologize for her fanbase. To make matters worse, Armour inexplicably invoked the 1955 tragic murder of Emmett Till—before issuing a quiet Instagram apology.

Al Sharpton and Ben Crump flew into Mississippi, hijacked 18-year-old Nolan Wells' funeral, and launched a shakedown targeting the state of Mississippi — and Jason Whitlock is calling it exactly what it is. This is the Jesse Jackson playbook, documented in Kenneth Timmerman's 2002 book "Shakedown," now being run by carpetbaggers who never knew Nolan Wells a single day in his life. Sharpton compared Wells to Emmett Till, Ben Crump is manufacturing a racial crisis, and Tyler Perry is already writing checks. The goal? A government contract for Sharpton's National Action Network. Jason Whitlock exposes the Mississippi looting, confronts a false prophet hiding behind a collar, and delivers the biblical reckoning Rev. Al Sharpton deserves. ➢ Show Outline 00:00 - Mississippi Burning to Mississippi Looting 01:13 The Jesse Jackson Playbook 02:57 Sharpton and Crump's Upgraded Formula 04:49 The Death of Nolan Wells 05:57 The Emmett Till Comparison 06:58 Sharpton's Actions from a Biblical Perspective 10:18 Tyler Perry and the Broader Narrative 10:49 Why Mississippi Is the Target 12:25 The Wells Family Deserves Answers 14:13 The Narrative of Systemic Racism 17:27 Oppression, Culture, and Biblical Values 18:23 The Civil Rights Industry and Narrative Control 21:24 Will Sharpton and Crump Apologize? 22:48 The Bounty for Lies 26:02 The Deception of the Civil Rights Movement 29:41 Infantilism in the Black Community ➢ Follow Our GUESTS https://www.youtube.com/@ChadOJackson ➢ Subscribe to Jason's other channel https://www.youtube.com/JasonWhitlock?sub_confirmation=1 https://www.youtube.com/@JasonWhitlockHarmony?sub_confirmation=1 https://www.youtube.com/@JasonWhitlockBYOG?sub_confirmation=1 https://www.youtube.com/@JasonWhitlockClips?sub_confirmation=1 ➢ Connect with Jason on Social Media: https://x.com/JasonWhitlock https://www.instagram.com/realjasonwhitlock/ https://www.facebook.com/jasonwhitlock ➢ Send Jason an Email FearlessBlazeShow@gmail.com ➢ Support The Blaze Visit https://TheBlaze.com.

Was Nolan Wells's death a terrible accident, or did something happen on that island that nobody wants to say out loud? The honest answer is that no one can tell you yet — and that uncertainty is exactly why this case deserves more care than the internet is giving it.Nolan Wells, 18, of Ocean Springs, Mississippi, went out to a barrier island with friends and didn't come back. His body was recovered from the water two days later. The sheriff's early framing was that he chose to stay behind. The autopsy is finished but sealed. And in the absence of facts, two camps have hardened — one convinced of foul play, one convinced everyone should let it go. Neither has the evidence to be that certain.This breakdown steps back from the shouting. It examines why Nolan ended up alone out there, why the emergency response lagged, and why Mississippi's own past — the kind that includes Emmett Till and Medgar Evers — makes it reasonable for people to demand a real investigation instead of a quick official reassurance. It also insists on the other half: that a demand for scrutiny can't curdle into convicting people no one has met, and that a tragic accident, if that's what this turns out to be, deserves the same respect as any other truth.The Wells family isn't asking for a verdict. They're asking for answers. This is a look at why those answers can only come from evidence — the autopsy, the toxicology, the video, the witnesses — and never from whichever side yells the loudest.END_LINKS:Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The sheriff's answer tells you everything about why this case exploded. Asked how an 18-year-old ended up dead and alone on an island ten miles offshore, the response was basically that Nolan Wells chose to stay. For a grieving family, that isn't an answer — it's a door slamming shut.The Nolan Wells case has become a national flashpoint, and for good reason. Wells, a college football player from Ocean Springs, Mississippi, went to Horn Island with friends on the Fourth of July. They came back. He didn't. Two days later his body was found in the water. A finished autopsy hasn't been released. The family commissioned a second one. And every hour without answers, the theories grow louder and further apart.This conversation cuts through the noise. It lays out what's actually known versus what people are filling in on their own, why the state's history — from Emmett Till to Medgar Evers — makes blind trust impossible for so many, and why "just calm down and move on" is not the neutral, sober position it imagines itself to be. It also draws a hard line: earned suspicion is not the same as proof, and using a real history of injustice to convict strangers is its own kind of shortcut.Everyone wants to be right about Nolan Wells. Almost nobody wants to wait for the truth. This is about why the waiting — and the demanding — both matter, and why the family deserves every bit of it.END_LINKS:Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Clay Edwards Show – Episode 1256: FAFO Friday On this FAFO Friday, Clay kicks things off with some real talk about his TRT journey — building muscle like never before, feeling unstoppable at nearly 50, and why he calls it the fountain of youth (with the caveat that you still gotta put in the work). Clay then shifts gears for a much-needed mental break from the culture wars, opening the floor to listeners about their best concerts ever. He shares his unforgettable experience at the Rock Never Stops tour featuring Quiet Riot, Slaughter, and Warrant — a high-energy night that reignited his lifelong love for 80s hair metal. Expect plenty of nostalgia, stories about the resurgence of rock, grunge discoveries, and classic tales from Lollapalooza, Family Values Tour, and more. Later, Clay dives back into heavier topics: the ongoing Nolan Wells case and his frustration with race-baiters, conspiracy theories, and endless Emmett Till comparisons that cheapen real history. He also breaks down Donald Trump's recent comments on China's role in the 2020 election theft, voter data breaches, and why the evidence keeps getting buried by the mainstream. Unfiltered, no sugar added, and all over the map — just how the show should be. Strap in for laughs, music memories, accountability, and straight talk.
At Ms. Studios and Ms. Magazine, we have long recognized that reproductive justice is not a matter that begins and ends with pregnancy. Rather the call for reproductive justice endures after birth, into childhood, and teenage years for so many mothers, especially Black mothers. Mamie Till Mobley comes to mind—the mother of Emmett Till. Emmett was murdered just after his 14th birthday in drew, Mississippi. He was abducted, shot, lynched and his murderers were acquitted by an all-male, all white jury. His killers would later confess in look magazine. · Trayvon Martin comes to mind. Killed in Florida, just after his 17th birthday. Brutally murdered by George Zimmerman while walking home carrying iced tea and a packet of candy--skittles. Zimmerman was found not guilty.· Tamir Rice, twelve years-old, shot dead by Officer Timothy Loehmann, within mere seconds upon encountering this child who was in a park holding a toy gun.· Ruby Bridges integrating William Frantz Elementary School in Louisiana in 1960—comes to mind. An all-white mob outside of the school threatening to harm her. For Ruby's mother—Lucille Bridges—reproductive justice wasn't just about birth—it was about her daughter being able to flourish in a society wherein Jim Crow and Jane Crow racial segregation and discrimination were the normalized landscape.In this episode we shine a light and ask what happened to Nolan Xavier Wells, a teenager found dead on Horn Island in Mississippi. His death has been ruled a drowning by local law enforcement, although he could swim. We issue a special call to action for local law enforcement and for all that saw Nolan on the last day of his life. Support the show

*What Really Happened to Nolan Wells? Accidental Drowning or Racist Conspiracy? | Clay Edwards Show* In this hard-hitting episode of The Clay Edwards Show, Clay dives deep into the tragic drowning of Nolan Wells on Horn Island and dismantles the wild conspiracy theories and race-baiting narratives flooding social media. Joined in studio by retired Clinton Police Department veteran Creston Birch, Clay breaks down the facts, the judge's statement, the timeline, and why this was almost certainly a tragic accident — not some modern-day Emmett Till lynching. Clay also rips into Jackson's ongoing cultural rot, public drug use and homelessness, the failure of "positive solutions," and why shaming bad behavior in public actually works. Expect unfiltered talk on black flight from failing cities, media manipulation, conflict resolution in different communities, and why some people are desperate to turn every tragedy into racism. - Listener texts, live chat reactions, and Clay's signature no-holds-barred monologues **Stream the full show now** — raw, uncut reality radio that cuts through the noise.

Tyson Proper, Heidi Beirich, JD Vance, Brendan Sorsby, and Hillary Clinton headline today's A.M. Update. The FBI disrupts a multi-state terror plot targeting the White House UFC event, arresting five people in Ohio, Missouri, Nebraska, and California after 19-year-old Tyson Proper admitted to planning drone-delivered explosive attacks with stage snipers, with Republican senators including Marsha Blackburn and Shelley Moore Capito named as targets. A DOJ superseding indictment identifies former SPLC Intelligence Project director Heidi Beirich as the official who allegedly funneled $1.2 million in donor money to her neo-Nazi informant lover, the same organization Aaron has been covering for weeks that refuses to remove TPUSA from its hate map. Fifteen Minnesota protesters face federal charges for using vehicles and blocks of ice to obstruct ICE operations. JD Vance goes on The View, rejects a vague Emmett Till premise by simply asking what specifically she is talking about, then flips the immigration inhumanity argument by pointing to tens of thousands of children sex trafficked under the previous administration. Brendan Sorsby folds under a Big 12 federal lawsuit and opts for the NFL supplemental draft, Hillary Clinton adds Joe Biden to her list of people she regrets, Trump promises to read the Iran MOU verbatim at a press conference, and a Chicago college student admits he built and burned his own cross in Grant Park to protest Trump.
