Dooney: Why Aren’t We Telling Our Story

By Johnny A. Jordan Jr.

If you’ve had this conversation with family or friends, you know the need and see the void (our generation/black baby boomers) we are leaving as our legacy. Please make no mistake; what you are experiencing right now is history for the next generation. Ok, so you might not be in the Hall of Fame or have a title before your name; but you are a light to someone. Please don’t take it lightly; how many stories with no names attached to them have inspired people to action? That’s what it’s all about. Hear me when I say, “THAT’S YOU TOO”…Tell Your Story.

Johnny A. Jordan Jr.

Johnny A. Jordan, Jr. aka Dunny, was born and raised in a small town in the deep south. Upon graduating from high school at seventeen, I served three years in the U.S. Army, sixteen months was stationed in South Korea. I was SITUATIONALLY placed into retirement after twenty-four years of service with the phone company, I’m sure some other minorities can identify with situational layoffs. I started and played with several bands in and out of the military. I produced several Cable Television shows, produced my band Ashanti” 45 rpm record. I also retired as Minister of Music in 2021 after thirty plus years. Now I enjoy staying sharp on my instruments, playing a lot of golf (shot a 67 June tenth holiday 20th from the white tees) and spending time with family.
