When Life Gives You (Don) Lemons…

On this week’s episode, journalists Tre’vell Anderson and jarrett hill discuss the very complex and complicado of Don Lemon, and how his legacy has not only affected pop culture, but the Black community. Our hosts get into the dichotomy of the journalist, as both a victim and perpetrator of homophobia and anti-blackness. But first, a special FANTI exclusive on Tre’vell and jarrett’s upcoming book, Historically Black Phrases. (Dropping September 19th) And later Tre’vell shares their run in with somebody’s grandmother during their book tour of We see Each Other: A Black Trans Journey Through Television and Film. Mentioned In This EpisodeDon LemonPaula Williams MadisonTrace LysetteDIS/Honorable Mentionsjh:HM: The Pulitzer prize winner and NABJLA advocacy committee member, her excellency Erika Diane Smith!HM: Showtime’s Couples Therapy - All New Episodes for Season 3. HM: Final season of A Black Lady Sketch Show, on HBOMaxHM: Dr. Charles Davis's new podcast, Police Free Campus.
