Episode 356: Origin and The American Society of Magical Negroes

Josh is joined by recurring guest Daniel Lima and Josh Brown for a double feature. First, they discuss Ava DuVernay's "Origin" and whether it should have just been a documentary, if its thesis statement is such that that documentary would have even been necessary, why someone would attempt to dramatize Travyon's Martin's death in a narrative feature and much more. Then, they talk about "The American Society of Magical Negroes" and if the premise of a secret society of black people who placate white people's feelings it one that could work in the right hands, if this is the mode in which Justice Smith finally worked as a leading man and much more! Edited and Produced by Daniel Lima.
