Stop Sympathizing With Black Criminals. R.I.P Mahogany Jackson

The Divested Diary

Mar 8 2024 • 17 mins

The podcast episode discusses a horrific crime where six black individuals are accused of kidnapping, torturing, sexually assaulting, and murdering a 20-year-old black woman named Mahogany Jackson in Birmingham, Alabama. According to details provided in a Daily Mail article, Jackson was handcuffed, beaten, spit on, and forced to perform sex acts on her attackers in an apartment. Videos were also taken of the torture and assault by several of the perpetrators before a gunshot to the back of the head killed Jackson.

Host Sharika Soal expresses deep anger and frustration over the gruesome details of Jackson's death. Soal argues that sympathizing with black criminals is harming American society and that it is time to stop doing so. She advocates for "divesting" from behaviors and lifestyles associated with "ghetto black culture." Soal criticizes the idea that white supremacy is always to blame for issues within black communities. She also takes issue with liberal policies and the level of support the black community shows for Democratic politicians.

Soal discusses the impact of "ghetto culture" on the black community. She criticizes aspects of this culture like "thug life" and the hip hop/rap music industry. Soal argues this culture promotes a lack of humanity, respect, and safety. She shares her personal experience as an adopted person and her concern for black children's wellbeing. Soal advocates for supporting black women and building them up instead of enabling supposed criminal behaviors.
