No one ever told this Harvard grad that he was supposed to learn how to write
/Damn! Who knew there was a real world waiting after Harvard and Stanford?
Video has emerged showing Democratic California Sen. Dianne Feinstein’s former aide dancing in her office while smoking a joint and high on psychedelic mushrooms jamming out to “I Like It” by DeBarge after he was terminated from his role last month.
Jamarcus Purley, who holds degrees from Harvard and Stanford, was fired last month from his role as a legislative correspondent at Feinstein’s office, according to Latino Rebels. In an act of rebellion, Purley decided to have one last hoorah at the office.
In the video posted to Youtube, Purley is first seen lounging at a desk with a suit on, beginning to dance as he smokes a large blunt. Purley then pulls his feet onto the chair and begins dancing again before almost falling off.
Feinstein allegedly fired him for performance issues, prompting Purley to post the letter to Instagram. Purley has been dodging a bullet working on the Hill for five years.
“I had come so far, I thought, and now Feinstein won,” Purley told Latino Rebels. “That’s when I ate some shrooms thinking they had won. While I was on the shrooms I came to the realization of what I had to do. I put on a suit because the walls in Congress aren’t real if you wear a suit. I had just bought some Jordans the day before. I was happy as fuck.”
Purley said he knew what he “had to do” because he “knew no one would ever know the sh*t Feinstein does to black people if I didn’t make it impossible to ignore.”
“That was the best night of my motherfucking life,” Purley reportedly said.
Purley alleged that while working for the senator, colleagues would touch his hair without his permission and was passed over for a promotion twice because his supervisors told him he did not write well enough. Purley told MSNBC he was writing to Feinstein’s constituents in a way that they would understand it and relate to.
And I’ll bet they are, son:
“I thought about how special my mom and black women would feel seeing me dance to that song in particular.”
