Beats, Labs and Life

It's starting to feel like we're stuck between a rock and a hard place as Black scientists. No one seems to believe in our ability to produce research and data. Let us tell you about this one time we were questioned and insulted.

COVID's still going strong. But so are we! Lets take a look at the vaccine roll out and the reactions, some absurd and otherwise, around the world. 

COVID just wont leave us alone. The fellas suspend the usual format to talk about the unusual events surrounding the Commander in Chief contracting the virus. Seems not even the virus will deter his brash behavior. Reports have it Trump may have knowingly traveled and been infected. Woah!

We're back! So there's another person masquerading as an African American woman. Schools are re-opening because there's money to be made. And no, there still isn't a vaccine. Tune in as we discuss why.

The Rona is back and with a vengeance! It feels like a second wave has hit the US pretty hard, but we are still in the first! Some US citizens are concerned and others are simply defiant when it comes to wearing a mask. What's the problem with a mask? Why is the CDC always a step behind? When will we get back to normal? Let's talk about it. 

We're not out of the woods yet. We need to talk about the transition from the COVID-19 shutdown to the Juneteenth celebration. We still need to touch on mask usage and hot spots around the nation. Some places are looking up but we are looking at second wave everywhere else. Let's talk safety.  

This week we are looking at what it means to “be” black. The data, the theories, and ancient technologies associated with Black health. Is our nature the reason we’re seeing shorter life spans? Or is that as fake as the initial autopsy done by the ME in Hennepin County? Brothers on the mic and you know the ledge.

This week we delve more in the news of the culture. Of course we know the science of the day. But man the stress of seeing a Black man deal with the reality of life in America is palpable to say the least. How’s stress make ya feel? What’s it do to ya? Lawd this racism is killing us.

I hope you're not hungry. Today we’re talking about how foodstuffs are getting misrepresented in junk science. Junk food. Lol But we are going to dice up some Dr Sebi dietary guidelines and see if we can trace the history of some of the recipes. Pull up a seat cushion. Dinner’s served.
