In a powerful moment, Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey made clear he will NOT back down to the 47 regimes efforts to terrorize Somali immigrants.
This is powerful. This is what real leaders do!
If we’re going to talk, I’d prefer it to be respectful and based on understanding, not stereotypes or accusations
I would like to state that I come from Singapore – a very diverse and respectful country.
I’m not interested in arguing about politics or making assumptions about each other’s background.
I respect everyone’s personal experiences, including yours, but conversations like this only create division.

In addition to his work as a sideman, Whitlock released more than a dozen solo albums, beginning with a self-titled 1972 effort on which Clapton and Delaney and Bonnie Bramlett returned the favor with musical contributions. In addition to providing keyboards and background on the album, Whitlock also contributed acoustic guitar to the track “Thorn Tree in the Garden,” which he wrote. Whitlock also co-composed six tracks with Clapton: “I Looked Away,” “Bell Bottom Blues,” “Keep on Growing,” “Tell the Truth,” “Why Does Love Got to Be So Sad?” and “Anyday.” (Words by Jeff Tamarkin)
Born March 18, 1948, in Memphis, Tennessee, Whitlock learned to play the Hammond organ as a teen and landed work at the Stax Records label contributing to recordings by Sam and Dave, Albert King, the Staple Singers and others. In 1969, Whitlock contributed to two albums by the Bramletts, 'Home' and 'Accept No Substitutes,' as well as the following year’s live album, 'On Tour With Eric Clapton' and subsequent studio recordings. Over the next few years, in addition to making his own solo debut, Whitlock was hired to contribute to albums by Dr. John, Doris Troy and Stephen Stills’ band Manassas, among others. (Words by Jeff Tamarkin)
Derek and the Dominos arose out of the 'All Things Must Pass' sessions, which also included bassist Carl Radle and drummer Jim Gordon. The quartet of Clapton, Whitlock, Radle and Gordon toured during 1970 but before the end of 1971 the band had split. The “Layla” title track, written by Clapton and Gordon, inspired by George Harrison’s then-wife Pattie Boyd (who later married Clapton), was released in 1971 as a single to little fanfare but upon its re-release the following year it landed in the Billboard Top 10. For his solo debut, Whitlock called upon Clapton, Gordon and Radle for accompaniment, as well as Harrison, Klaus Voormann, Traffic’s Chris Wood and others. The album, released on the ABC-Dunhill label in the U.S., peaked at #140. Its followup, 1972’s 'Raw Velvet,' made it only to #190 and was the last of Whitlock’s solo works to chart. In the mid-’70s, he withdrew from the music business, and he lived on a farm in Mississippi during the next two decades, doing occasional session work. He returned to active music-making in 1999 with the solo album 'It’s About Time.' Other Whitlock albums, some made with his wife CoCo Carmel, featured special guests including Willie Nelson, Steve Cropper. In the 2000s, Whitlock relocated to Austin, Texas. In 2010, Whitlock published A Rock ’n’ Roll Autobiography, his memoir, which included a foreword from Clapton. (Words by Jeff Tamarkin) (Words by Jeff Tamarkin)
Bobby Whitlock, the pianist, guitarist and songwriter who played on three of rock’s most legendary albums — 'Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs,' 'All Things Must Pass' and 'Exile on Main Street' — has died. He was 77. A statement provided to ABC Audio by his manager Carole Kaye reads, “With profound sadness, the family of Bobby Whitlock announces his passing at 1:20am on Aug. 10 after a brief illness. He passed in his home in Texas, surrounded by family.” Born and raised in Memphis, Whitlock played on recordings by Sam & Dave and Booker T. & the M.G.’s as a teen and was the first white artist signed to Stax Records. In 1969, he played on the album 'Accept No Substitute' by Delaney and Bonnie Bramlett and joined their touring band, Delaney & Bonnie and Friends. Eric Clapton and George Harrison subsequently joined the band as guest “Friends,” which led to Whitlock and Clapton backing Harrison on the former Beatle‘s landmark 1970 album 'All Things Must Pass.' While working on Harrison’s album, Whitlock and Clapton formed Derek and the Dominos with fellow Friends Carl Radle and Jim Gordon. Whitlock wrote or co-wrote seven of the fourteen songs on their now-iconic album 'Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs,' including “Tell the Truth” and “Bell Bottom Blues.” After Derek and the Dominos split in 1971, Whitlock released two solo albums and played uncredited on The Rolling Stones’ 1972 album 'Exile on Main Street.' He also played on albums by Dr. John and Manassas. Whitlock, who was inducted into Memphis’ Beale Street Walk of Fame in 2024, continued to record and release albums throughout his career, later accompanied by his wife and musical partner CoCo Carmel Whitlock. He is survived by Carmel Whitlock, sister Debbie Wade and children Ashley Brown, Beau Whitlock and Tim Whitlock Kelly. (Words by ABC Radio) (photo by CoCo Whitlock)

The jury doesn’t need more time to deliberate on the verdict. GUILTY!
Life is a journey, not a destination. Enjoy the ride.
These will become historical sinners.
