In a week where:Liverpool wins the Premier League and first top-flight trophy in 30 years after Chelsea beats Manchester City 2-1.The teenager who tried to kill a six-year-old at Tate Modern is jailed for 15 years. In a one-to-one with Kerry Washington, Sandra Oh says the UK TV industry is behind in diversity. The city of Leicester goes into its own lockdown.In Film/TV: (8:52) Actor & Writer Daniel Lawrence Taylor delivers a great piece on how talk is cheap when it comes to the UK Television industry and how as a whole, need to fix up as it pertains to diversity.In Sports: (19:42) The Queen of Sprint, Dina Asher-Smith, comes through with a thoughtful column on how she's experienced racism and how education is the key to long-term progress.In Life: (35:11) Speaking of education! Somebody is already making moves to create a decolonised black University and I for one am gassed about this prospect.Lastly, in Music: (51:27) 6ix9ine & Nicki Minaj went No.1 with their collaborative effort "TROLLZ", which is another glaring example of how the music industry can't help but shamelessly money grab and inadvertently kill the essence of Hip-Hop in the process.Thank you for listening!
