Howdy to the people!  Listen to our latest episode of Afronerd Radio'sMid Week in Review (MWIR) airing this Wednesday at 7:30pm EST.  Join your hosts, Dburt and Capt. Kirk as they wax about the following (mid) weekly topics:  Dburt returns from Brooklyn's 12th annual Afropunk festival and shares his (sweaty) thoughts; and in the wake of Afropunk, the nearby MTV Video Music Awards continues to prove that the once cutting edge music channel just doesn't cut that edge anymore (and hasn't for a loooong time); San Francisco 49ers quarterback, Colin Kaepernick takes a polarizing if not controversial stance on not standing for the national anthem as a form of protest against police violence toward African Americans/POC; the battle between Sec. Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump rages on with the Black vote and accusations of Racism being placed at the center;  comic legend, Dave Chappelle riffs on Black Lives Matter being the "worst slogan" he's ever heard (hopefully, the SJWs won't ban him for independent thinking);  And speaking of Trump, a recent NY Times op-ed chastises the Republican presidential candidate for doling out bleak racial stereotypes about Black people but can African American public social critics (Dr. Marc Lamont Hill, Mychal Denzel Smith and Ta-Nehisi Coates) be critiqued for the same thing?
