People love to receive accolades for their time, their talent, and their impact.  In every industry, those accolades or awards can skyrocket a career. We see it in sports, music And…television and film. But are most awards seeking to properly acknowledge everyone?   We are beginning to suspect that some of these awards are ill-gotten gains. So Brunchers let’s talk about awards. Starting with the unofficial start of the Awards season the Golden Globes.

If you know who Rochelle Zimmerman, Calypso, or Marie Laveau is (without any prompting) then you will thoroughly enjoy our discussions about Black women portraying Witches in media.
