MK320: It’s Always the Boyfriend (Underreported Missing Black Women, Drake & Underaged Girls, Historic Queer Latinx Game Changers, Black Celebs & Covid)

We discuss ‘Missing White Woman Syndrome’ what it is, and why missing Black women goes so underreported (but also can we just not disappear all women)? We must finally talk, and have a come to Jesus moment about Drake and his relationship with underaged girls. We also must have a talk about some Black celebs and their perception of COVID. In the main Korner we celebrate 6 Historic Queer Latinx gamechangers to celebrate that you dont know about! Guest Co- Host - Lauren Carter: a Software Engineer in Silicon Valley with a track record for leading engineering teams that build consumer products. In addition to her technical role, Lauren is a long time distance runner turned tri-athlete.  She's competed on some of the largest and most successful Track Clubs and Triathlon teams in the US. When not engaging in fitness or tech, you can find Lauren with a glass of wine in hand probably having a discussion about gardening.REFERENCE LINKS: Missing Black Women UnreportedMissing black women's cases are often unsolved, underreportedThe urgent crisis of missing Black women and girlsThey walked for the ‘Unforgotten 51’ and all other Black women murdered or missing in Chicago230,000 people of color reported missing in the U.S. These black women are doing something about itNews Media Can’t Shake ‘Missing White Woman Syndrome,’ Critics SayBlack celebrities denying Pon de Replay, our last victim, Busta Rhymes Nicki Minaji scandal update (testicalgate distraction)Historic, Queer, LatinX Gamechangers http://www.newnownext.com/latinx-queer-lgbtq-history-month/10/2018/https://www.hrc.org/news/hrc-honors-five-latinx-lgbtq-historical-figures-for-latinx-heritage-monthhttp://www.alanpelaez.com/contact/#cntctfrm_contact_formhttps://www.spectrumsouth.com/5-queer-latinx-icons/https://hiplatina.com/latinx-lgbtqia-icons-we-should-all-know/Minority Korner on YouTube:  https://bit.ly/2JsXEuuCONTACT USTwitter: @minoritykornerEmail: [email protected]: @minoritykornerHost/Producer: James Arthur M: TW: @JamesArthur_M, IG: @JamesArthur
