- On the first episode of The Caucus Room, Dr. Wes Bellamy discusses his remarkable rise to becoming a national political figure. Wes talks with Don Calloway about growing up with Atlanta's Maynard mentality, witnessing Charlottesville's deadly tiki torch white supremacist riot from the inside, running a modern digital campaign, being an HBCU graduate and professor, serving as Vice Mayor of Charlottesville, Virginia, Thomas Jefferson's legacy of slavery in the city, becoming a fitness influencer, founding Our Black Party, thirst trapping on the gram, his unlikely friendship with Jeezy, and who is next up in local and national politics. And of course Dr. Wes is a Nupe, so we are featuring Diggs Boys Bourbon as this week's Spirit of the Caucus.

I see you, DC! Congrats on your maiden voyage.
Great conversation Bro Callaway! Thank you @KarenHunterShow for spreading the word!
loving this interview. There needs to be a multiplicity of brothers like Dr. Bellamy (and Bro. Calloway) and the energy would change the dynamics of our people one community and one city at a time.
This is great!
Brother Don, this was such a great interview! I'm in the Charlottesville area and have met Wes before. He's a good dude and had done good work for the city. I hadn't heard his story before your interview with him and it was very candid and encouraging. My wife and I aren't from the area where we do our community work as well. So this really resonated with me. Knowing your numbers in whatever field you're in is super important!! Good stuff champ!
Listening to this is incredible. I didn’t know the back story. Thank you Don!
Episode is mad good, Don Calloway! Thank you and brother Dr.Bellamy for this gold!
