Let’s get to it!  Welcome to the latest episode of Afronerd Radio’s The Grindhouse airing this Sunday at 6pm eastern at our new broadcasting home-BTalk 100.  Your AFROnerdist hosts are “b(l)ack by popular demand” and will be discussing the following issues:  still more “goings-on” relating to the global protests except now the Black Lives Matter movement is international and multi-racial; and is the current movement equally about police brutality and anti-blackness?;  And while we’re on the topic of anti-blackness, some in the Indian acting community are simultaneously being applauded (for their stance on BLM) and critiqued for promoting skin bleaching products;  New Orleans Saints quarterback, Drew Brees formally apologizes for his perceived insensitivity toward African-Americans regarding his views about how kneeling equates to disrespecting the American flag; I guess this was always an obvious leap-if AI (artificial intelligence) will be driving cars in the near future, why not airplanes?  A piece from TheDrive.com highlights a planned test pitting a manned fighter jet against an autonomous drone; ; Fox News apologizes for using a graph to depict how stock performance spikes after the high profile killings of (or violent acts levied against) black men;  And in lighter blerd-pop culture news:  infamous (or is it problematic) director, Josh Trank opens up about his fight with studio execs when he pitched a black Sue Storm for his version of the Fantastic Four;   the MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe) may be eyeing their interpretation of the Greek god, Hercules for the silver screen treatment;  noted actor, John Boyega speaks out against police malfeasance (with concerns of career suicide) and gets public support from black directors insuring that he will be able to work after all;  And lastly, if time permits we’ll try to round up the black NYC surfing community that recently paid homage to George Floyd; and where there’s surfers there’s also black equestrians in Houston, Texas honoring Mr. Floyd; will activist/athlete, Colin Kaepernick get hired in the wake of all this pro BLM news?  Call the show LIVE at 508-645-0100. 

OH…and P.S.  Thoughts about TV mogul, Oprah Winfrey’s OWN special, “Where Do We Go From Here?” Are there too many Progressive thought leaders in tow or should the black politically alternative voices develop there own platform?
