Justin Jones, one of the Tennessee state lawmakers expelled from his House seat Thursday, said on MSNBC’s “The ReidOut” a member called him an “uppity Negro.”
Jones said, “I mean, the nation, the world was watching Tennessee, which is why they were on their best behavior. But even under their best behavior, you saw the disdain, the arrogance. I basically had a member call me an uppity Negro.”
"I basically had a member call me an uppity Negro.”
