## Resource

In the second hour, Clay is joined by Shuwaski Young, candidate for Mississippi Secretary of State. They break down the NAACP’s push for black athletes to boycott predominantly white universities in southern states over redistricting and voting rights concerns. Clay and Young criticize the campaign as shortsighted and harmful, arguing it threatens black athletes’ NIL opportunities and long-term financial prospects without offering any real alternative support.Young opens up about his journey from Democrat to Republican, his views on voting rights, crime in Mississippi communities, and why he believes proper redistricting could drive positive generational change. The conversation covers the Democratic Party’s shift left, the need for honest discussions about personal responsibility and crime, and the growing influence of black conservatives in the South.
