In case y’all haven’t heard by now, singer/actor, Jason Weaver is never one to bite his tongue, especially when it comes to matters of politics and injustices in America. As a self proclaimed avid soul music lover, Jason came up on the many teachings that icons like Marvin Gaye, Curtis Mayfield, Nina Simone, and Gil Scott Heron sang about. So it’s only natural that in times like we’re unfortunately experiencing today- with the revamped racial tensions and such- that Jason spoke out to blast who he referred to as a “coon” with a “jheri curl ponytail” at the Trump rally on Monday (8-22-17).
You’ve probably seen the cat he’s referring to come across your social media news feeds this morning, because he’s been the talk of the rally. That is where Trump once again defended his decision to not precisely pinpoint who was at fault for sparking the racist Charlottesville, Va. riot that killed one woman who was plowed down with a car by a white supremacist supporter; and left one trooper and a pilot dead after their surveillance helicopter crashed. By the way, Trump also recently tweeted that he agrees with the white extremists groups, that the “beautiful” statues of former slave owners, like confederate general, Robert E. Lee, should not be taken down throughout America.
Watch Jason Weaver Go Off About Oddly Placed Black Guy At Rally
Anywho, as Trump gave his speech on Tuesday, the weirdest part of it all was the Black guy who was clearly strategically placed by Trump’s campaign organizers. The brotha held up a homemade “Blacks for Trump in 2020” sign and Jason Weaver had a LOT to say about it. First, he captioned his video with this:
@itsjasonweaver: ♂️ Who TF is THIS coon in the background? Wow.. He ought to be ashamed of himself for supporting this muthafu*ka and his racist agenda. When you look up the word “self loathing”… Theres a picture of THIS coon right next to it. I know his family has to be embarrassed to be related to him. I know I would be if he was my family. Smh. Damn shame..
But y’all have got to see what the former Michael Jackson actor/Drumline star called this dude out on in his video clip below (contains graphic language)…

Protests Outside The Rally
Meanwhile this happened outside the rally as protesters against Trump clashed with police…
Info On The Guy Holding “Blacks For Trump Sign”
After the rally the guy got the attention he seemed to be seeking because some people began asking who he was and what he did for a living. Here is what was reported about him via TMZ:
The guy’s name is Maurice Symonette and he was having a good ‘ol time Tuesday night at the rally. His website is one gigantic rant, with such statements as, “Make Cherokees & the Indians Pay Taxes.” The guy is on a mission against the Cherokees … “The real KKK slave masters revealed … they are Cherokee Indians.”
It was also reported that he owns a website that pushes the same agenda that was quoted by TMZ, but since we’ve already given his ill-informed historical antics enough shine, we’ve decided not to include his website domain name here. Thanks for reading ILOSM family.
