At Street Level 256

 
 
 
At Street Level. You can take a horse to water, but you can't make drink. My role is to make him "thirst".

At Street Level 255

 

At Street Level. Allegations exist that Dr. Mitchell was H.R. Guy who hired Holcomb as Asst. Basketball Coach @ E.C. Central. My baby beef is that Holcomb had a domestic battery case that should have been a red flag to pass on Holcomb. Nonetheless, he was ultimately hired amid sexual harassment allegations as of this writing.

At Street Level 253

 


 
At Street Level. Street was standing in front of Copeland's crib on 140th between Deodor & Elm, slugging on some MGD's. Street wanted to meet with him because Don Cooley had just told me, "King Kong was going down from a small virus." Street had to call Mayor Pabey, King Kong, to try & motivate Cooley. "King Kong said you guys aren't gonna bust a grape in a wine factory," Street laid it on thick. And now Street had just dropped it on Copeland, who only looked at me. "Oh, yeah?" Copeland probed. "Yup, & you are gonna be like Jackie Robinson, you will be the first black mayor of East Chicago as long as you don't get hit by a bus." Street broke it down like a shotgun." So what I better be careful crossing the street." He had a shit-face grin as he talked. "Yup, because Medina can't beat you in a caucus,” Street continued. Cars proved by & beeped at us.

At Street Level 252


 

 
At Street Level. Breaking it down like a shotgun. "He gave me his word that he would bring back Public Access if he got elected," Copeland told me as we talked. "What you just found out that a Puerto Rican can tell a lie?"I put it to him."You think he was gonna let you have public access television so you could use it like a 2x4 to beat him over the head with like you did Pastrick?” This was me keeping it one hundred & tired of biting my tongue.
