BizzleCast 39: Hollywood's Race Problem ft. Gabriel (aka Kwadwo)

The title of this BizzleCast speaks for itself, and with the Oscars coming quickly it’s time to tackle this issue. While CREED and STRAIGHT OUTTA COMPTON got snubbed, Chris Rock is apparently re-writing his hosting material to make this the “raciest” Academy Awards show ever (and the only real reason to watch). Gabriel aka Kwadwo (his Ghanaian name) is a newly minted BizzleCast co-contributor and joins the show to share his views on the matter as someone who loves movies and being black. In addition to the two movies mentioned, we go back in time to talk about 12 Years A Slave, Django Unchained, The Help, Precious, The Last King of Scotland, all things Denzel, the new Storm (fro-hawk and all), and much more. This is a highly civilized but super fun podcast - we manage to keep it both upbeat and real as much as we can, and I think y’all are really going to love this one.
