Howdy, folks! Let's agree to chalk up this next episode of Afronerd Radio as our post/belated MLK Day show. Call the hosts live at 646-915-9620. Listen to Captain Kirk and Dburt discuss and extrapolate the following current event laden data for your edification: our thoughts on whether or not the post Civil Rights generations (X, Y/millennial) have truly honored Dr. King's legacy (i.e. director, Oliver Stone's recent lost bid at making a King biopic; a King photo-shopped "twerk" flyer, misguided MLK frat party etc) ; Seattle Seahawk cornerback, Richard Sherman's post game antics and the racial backlash; Dburt briefly shares his thoughts about attending his first Black Comic Con at Harlem's legendary Schomburg museum (more on this with Daryll on Saturday's Grindhouse broadcast); pop legend, Madonna has her n-word twitter hashtag moment; a magazine editor causes controversy with her realistic Black female mannequin art chair; FOX News and the GOP claim that the POTUS can no longer place charges on his "race card" and lastly, a lucky Google glasses owner received an unlucky visit from FBI agents while viewing the latest movie at the local cinema. See you all at 7pm!
