from Afronerd Radio · host Afronerd Radio

Happy New Year, afronerdists! As expected, our next installment will simply be a Year in Review broadcast (for the first Mid Week in Review of 2018)-airing this Wednesday at 7pm eastern. Join your hosts, Daryll B., Capt. Kirk and Dburt discuss the highlights (and "low" lights) of 2017 (ascendency of Donald Trump, more superhero films, celebrity deaths, TV binge watching is an offical pastime, natural disasters, homegrown terrorism, racism, sexism, tribalism etc). And in an effort to not only be informative but FAIR, we will also attempt to wax about actual (and apparently under reported) advancements that took place in 2017, We'll also look into some more recent news (veteran actress, Jodie Foster weighing in on the superhero genre and her belief that it's having a negative effect on art of cinema; Dave Chappelle's Netflix specials and how did we miss journalist, Tamron Hall reigniting the Black Santa debate?). Call LIVE at 646-915-9620.
