Dem Debates; Queen & Slim; Is BLACK Pride Acceptable?; Idris & Bond-TheGrind 6pm

from Afronerd Radio · host Afronerd Radio

Due to time constraints, we're going straight to the issues: although we are a year and half away from the '20 election, it still didn't deter the game of politics! Our impressions of the Miami, FL held democratric debates-any winners or losers? actor/producer, Lena Waithe stirs up controversy with the casting call ("slave" looking female descriptors) for the upcoming release of her independent film, Queen & Slim; the trailer also touched on notions of yet another black "struggle" film;  in the wake of WorldPride and it's heavy media acceptance, one must ask-can Black pride ever translate across the globe in a similar fashion?  And if so, how?; actor, Idris Elba talks candidly about the racial tensions he has faced when the rumor mill placed his name in the hat to be a replacement James Bond;  Wolverine has a daughter? Nope she's not X-23?  And lastly, more on Keanu Reeves potentially looking for a place at the MCU table,,,,but as what character?  Check for our Grindhouse broadcast airing tonight at 6pm eastern.
