Bougie Black Brother

Addressing Racist policy, White nationalist and White Supremacy

We get back into the the racist policies that seems to be increasing in the United States and abroad. We speak about Trumps team and sort of compare his legacy to George Bush’s presidency. Its hard not to see the bias of the Trumps administration.

Then we drop into defining Racism, White nationalism and White supremacy. We actual speak to experience and continuous dangerous intent to eliminate people of color and demeaning women.

Is Twitter the new Go to Media?

We jump off topic of politics and get into how media and information is changing with where we get it from. We give” E” his props for calling out Twitter as the go to place for news and info. And we had to comment on #blacktwitter. Our normal tirade was interrupted as we got into the positive and negatives of Twitter but also how ridiculous it could be.

Racial prejudice, Democratic Freshmen, Wanting to belong and group think to a detriment

We break off into the controversy of Trumps Tweets about the Freshmen democrats. We discuss why the GOP and certain people will support traditions, schools and what ever they feel makes them feel like they belong or part of sometime of group. Back to the R.Kelly, Michael Jackson condemnation. Did Mueller do the right thing?

 

Chernobyl (HBO)

We sit down and watch the mini series depicting the 1986 Chernobyl nuclear disaster in Russia.  The gritty and powerful depiction of the events during that time was interesting and captivating.  The previews made me put this on the list of something Alicia and I had to watch

 

2019 Democratic presidential debates

The team debates how the candidates did at presidential debates for the democrats. We assess the front runners, the people who should drop off as well as the perception that women and many others are tired of the old white men running for office.

When They See Us - Netflix

The Netflix series by Ava Duvenay about the tragedy inflicted on young teenagers named the Central Park Five.  This reenacted series about five young boys wrongly convicted of raping a white woman in Central Park back in 1989.  A 5 part series that spans the years they were convicted to 14+ years being exonerated of the crime.  Its a brutal view of the people of the justice system and the racist system that still exist today.  A very emotional series that is a must see for people who respects justice.
