Yall can clown this man's hair all you want. But you're completely missing this man's struggle & triumph, and how he's helped and still helping inmates

[@MsDarkie93]

We can do both.

[@wtfwednesday2571]

I haven't listened to him talk yet! I honestly came straight to the comments to see why he had on a frontal but after reading some comments and only reading good things about him and YOU only mentioning his hair, I am going to listen to him without watching because his hair on the thumbnail was distracting so I will listen but not look

[@TheMilanW]

This dude is what this country needs, he’s a true example of leadership.

[@theofficialbigmood8180]

We are what we need, let’s stop saying we need this and that person in the world. I get your point, he has great character with a heart of gold. But if we all just took a moment to just do beater and be better humans for ourselves, we’ll do right by others as a by product of wanting more out of life.

[@daxhaggard9661]

Unfortunately you are wrong he spreads a lot of misinformation on his socials to create anger among the black community which he used to back his political career.

I just love this man and his story. So wise even his posture. This is what a man should display in character not the foolery you young men show.

[@youngg555]

The man just went on and gave valid insights on the current state of NYC and his life story but people are on here commenting on his appearance making fun of his hair. Quite disappointed in Americans, when are people going to put the substance of the mind over appearance. Everyone seems to be missing the point and the value in his message. It has come to the point where "image" is all that matters to Americans, and they treat real life like its an Instagram profile when this guy is trying to fight for their wellbeing and way of life.

You need to weed out the "hate" in your blood to understand the level of integrity and intelligence this man is bringing to y'all. The system may be "corrupt" but the choices a cop makes is an individual one. Of course we the people don't like that. There's got to be an understanding before anything can be done about it. Get this man in the mayor's seat yo.

Facts or undeniable facts?...For Life needs to be on a Netflix or Starz at this point because ABC cancelling the show made no sense especially when they won awards. Although maybe they couldn't hack the realness of it. But if Isaac Wright Jr becomes NYC Mayor it would be an incredible journey. Proves that you can win against all the odds.

[@Wisdom887]

Factsss

[@bu2fulsoul]

That show never had any busy being on ABC. Netflix would've been perfect in that it could have allowed it to be more authentic...not so watered. down

[@thespadestable]

@@donzellowingo6062 - Because there are a few "black folks" who sees a con artist for what they really are.....Con Artists. Sorry, but con artists play off of a script, because it's known for generations, that script works more times than it fails. The founders of BLM played directly off the script, but as usual, "black folks" gave them a pass, even when years ago the crack in their armor began to show. And why should we ever believe, Isaac Wright, a former music producer, and convicted felon for the sale of cocaine, which was affirmed in an appeal, turned prison lawyer, turned civilian attorney, should be trusted as a politician? But it's individuals like yourself who backed BLM even with it's founders letting it known they were trained Marxists, lesbians, and desired the dismantling of the mother and father family union.

Please bring back For Life. It was defintely one of the best series on TV. For those commenting on his appearance are so clueless to his struggles and what he has overcame.

Tbh I only just found out about this man less than 24 hours ago, I then came across his show with Curtis Jackson “For Life” watched all the episodes somehow, I was just so intrigued to find out everything I could. It’s not everyday you meet a man that goes into jail and goes through what he went through, helps others on the way to help himself get out and prove his innocence. Truly amazing, God bless his soul. They say if you want to see change in the world, you have to begin with yourself.

Thank you, 1000 times, for this super important conversation. This Gent has my vote beyond compare and like him, Eric Adams, is a trojan horse or a serpent in our midst. I'm a senior native NYer and have never heard a conversation about what's good for the ppl of the city from any candidate. "Stop n Frisk" strangles our community and unfortunately, black cops don't protect us from that abuse. His "people are the provocateurs" of all abuses, I support like crazy, as well. Excellent answers to all questions posed, unlike stating the obvious ills, without a remedy, like all the others do. Homelessness, street violence and police corruption are my highest priorities, I like his approach to attacking them all. B1 always!
