White Yardie calls out the community & new amazon prime series THEM!!!

In this weeks episode we discuss the terrible events in Saint Vincent where About 20,000 people have been evacuated from their homes since La Soufrière volcano began erupting last Friday. It had not previously erupted since 1979. Mr Trebucq, the UN co-ordinator for Barbados and the Eastern Caribbean, said clouds of ash and smoke were continuing to pour from the volcano every day. In the second part of the show we discuss newly released Amazon Prime original series Them that claims to explore the terrifyingly evil nature of American anti-Blackness through a historical lens, focusing on the sociopolitically tumultuous period of The Second Migration. At first glance, the project appears to be a story about Black people, for Black people. But as the plot unfolds, the intended audience becomes less clear. Can a narrative set on triggering its target audience with racial trauma actually be written with us in mind?
