Special guest Michael Johnson joins Nikki & Rae on "The Corner" to talk about the the legacy of Mayor Chokwe Lumumba & the case of Marissa Alexander.

With very little coverage on the passing of Lumumba, who was mayor of Jackson, MS and the current case of Jacksonville, Florida resident Marissa Alexander, we felt that it is necessary to dedicate time to honor and express our thoughts and concerns. While raising questions for the community to think about.

Michael, who is an artist, activist, youth advocate, community leader and member of the BYP100 offers great insight and dialog on:

1. "Stand Your Ground" law.
2. How Race & Gender is played out in the Marissa Alexander Case
3. The importance of having a person like Chokwe Lumumba and what his legacy means to our community.

and so much more.
