James Rhodes, son of Nefertiti Jackmon and Eric Rhodes, faces the cameras at a track meet in Houston, TX. He described the suburban neighborhood where he lives with his father as, "The place where dreams die." The young man will be departing for college soon. Nefertiti, his mother and oldest daughter of Marvin X, is satisfied she gave her son a significant dose of African and spiritual consciousness.
Nefertiti urges her father to pass the baton at the BAM 50th Anniversary Celebration, Laney College. They participated on the panel BAM/Black Power Babies, an inter-generational discussion.
