  • Accessible, REAL Black analysis we need

    I LOVE this show so much because Olay brings together people who can speak to material conditions of Black folk and not strictly on some intellectual/ideological project that privileges “smart” people, or worse, on an unchecked ignorance that tends to permeate certain online conversations. Timely, critical, and NECESSARY analysis for the moment. She’s a mainstay round these parts (all her channels!!!). Thank you for your care and attention to Black matters.

To Boycott, or Not to Boycott?
Q: What could the next boycott be, even if it's not totally fleshed out?
The next step shouldn't be a boycott at all. We need to figure out what do we want and get to some understanding of what is our goal.
Diddy, Camron & Hip Hop's Problem With Abuse
Q: Did you recognize that kind of anger at all from your experiences?
Camron responds that he does not recognize that kind of anger from his experiences but finds the video disgusting and stands against domestic violence.
