Ok folks, let’s just jump into the fray!  Check out our latest episode of Afronerd Radio’s Grindhouse broadcast-airing this Sunday at 6 p. m. eastern on the BTalk 100 network.  Your esteemed AFROnerdist hosts will bring their unique analysis to the following topics:  almost like clockwork during these COVID-19 times, another Black hip hop legend passes in an untimely manner-Humpty Hump himself, Shock G dies at 57

an interesting article from the New York Times highlights the recent (and somewhat expansive) spate of Black themes and characters receiving mainstream exposure in the sci-fi, fantasy, and geek genre space; another NYT piece from celebrated educator and graphic novelist, Dr. Eve Ewing, details her triumphs and travails as a Black female writer in a mostly white and protective comic nerd landscape; longtime friend of the “steam engine,” filmmaker, Hilton Ruiz stops by to discuss his new project, Klans Rules…..think Klansmen and Black vampires….nuff said;         

A topic we failed to address during our last  Mid Week in Review broadcast, the new “wokeness” agenda many elite prep schools are enacting into their curriculum is upsetting some parents; Is it about education or indoctrination?;   according to TheMarySue.com, a new fan-funded campaign is afoot demanding that Marvel revise the Ironman character a la #RestoretheSnyderverse with Los Angeles billboard stating-#BringBackTonyStarkToLife……we’re off to the races, people!; our thoughts about the HBO Max/theatrical release of Mortal Kombat; after the final episode of S1 of The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, now we’re hearing that a mainstream MCU Captain America 4 release is being produced (which may be separate from a Chris Evans MCU film….hmm).
