Kirk) arriive this Wednesday at 7pm eastern to discuss the following issues: more racial animus in NYC (Queens parochial school honor student, Malcolm Xavier Combs) can't emblazon his namesake "Malcolm X" on his graduation sweater because school officials deem it to be offfensive; a White Bronx middle school principal purportedly has banned the teaching of Black History in her school; it appears that director, Zack Snyder was fired from the Justice League film and did not leave of his own volition as once thought; as the premiere of Black Panther approaches, legendary actor, Wesley Snipes has his own opinion as to why his Blade films are being left out of the conversation regarding Black cinematic history; Dburt posits that after Black Panther, DC/WB, might want to consider Milestone's Icon a viable IP to pursue to get their DCEU back on track; picking up on a topic we failed to address previously-a 25 year old robotics engineer of Nigerian descent garners a deal with Apple; And lastly, what will it take for a "real" Wakanda to be created (or is a Black Wall Street (s) in the Americas a better consideration?).
