On this Native Land MiniPod, our hosts Angela Rye, Andrew Gillum, and Tiffany Cross are joined by the founder of Black-owned social media site FanBase, Isaac Hayes III, and TV producer Tamisha Harris. 

Black folks cannot be liberated until we control our own media. Social media companies are shaping the way we think, we need to have a conversation on how Black folks can mitigate the harm and boost the help on Black-owned platforms like Fanbase.

On episode 95 of Native Land Pod, hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum take us to D.C. for updates in the Epstein saga PLUS unbelievable statements of SUPPORT for Trump from D.C.’s mayor. 

 

A group of sexual assault survivors testified in Congress this week, the victims of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghilaine Maxwell. Democrats have said that the government is complicit in Epstein’s crimes and that the blame goes “all the way to the top.” They have support from across the aisle in a rare moment of bi-partisanship. 

 

D.C.’s Mayor Muriel Bowser has had a change of heart when it comes to Trump’s occupation of the nation’s capital. She issued an executive order welcoming the federal troops and agents patrolling the streets to stay LONGER! Among other baffling details, the Mayor’s order calls for a “Safe and Beautiful Emergency Operations Center.” 

 

Rapper Cardi B kept it classy when the judge read the “not guilty” verdict in the civil lawsuit brought against her by a former security guard. She did lose her cool literally seconds after leaving the courtroom though… We’ll recap the trial that nearly awarded Emani Ellis 24 million dollars in damages.

On this week’s SoloPod, Angela Rye talks with Elizabeth Booker Houston about her contract with Chorus and the online controversy over a Wired article about dark money going to dem influencers.

 

Chorus is a non-profit organization that allegedly pays influencers to push Democratic Party messaging. This came out in an article in Wired magazine written by Taylor Lorenz. Elizabeth is going to go over her contract with Chorus and tell us why she thinks Taylor’s reporting is questionable.

In a recent live pod recording at Invest Fest in Atlanta, NLP host Tiffany Cross raised a potentially inconvenient question: Given capitalism’s roots in slavery, can that system ever actually serve Black people?

 

Today, she is joined by fellow hosts Angela Rye and Andrew Gillum to discuss and debate that question in more depth.

On episode 94 of Native Land Pod, hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum discuss the police takeover of Washington D.C. and have a frank – and emotional – conversation about what to do when leaders attempt to govern without the consent of the people.

 

A listener offers one solution to the dire situation: self-sustaining municipal communities. Another listener has some pushback for Angela’s recent SoloPod (but she has receipts).

On this week’s MiniPod, African American Vernacular English (AAVE) explained by our hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum. 

 

Are you on code?? We got a question from the creator of NLP’s theme song (see his credit at the bottom of this description) that sparked a larger conversation about ebonics, African American English. PLUS a bonus question about how to become a politician. 

 

What does “on code” mean to you? Leave us a comment–or better yet, check out this tutorial and send us a video: www.instagram.com/reel/C5j_oBXLIg0/

On episode 93 of Native Land Pod, hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum are forced to remind all of us that slavery was, in fact, bad. 

 

Fitness trainer and TV personality Jillian Michaels was on Abby Phillip’s CNN show recently making some wild claims about how slavery wasn’t that bad, wasn’t just committed by white people, and wasn’t actually that big of a part of the country’s founding because “only 2%” of Americans owned slaves… We have so many questions y’all–like why this person with no journalism or history experience featured on a CNN panel–but first we have to address some of her specific claims and misleading “facts.” We’ll hear from Nikole Hannah-Jones herself (the creator of the 1619 project).  

 

Our guest, Sherrilyn Ifill, gives American democracy a “D.” But, she says, our problems started long before Trump. She joins the NLP hosts to identify the weak points of our democracy and what building blocks might remain in a post-Trump era. Then, a deep dive into how integration led to the draining of public funds, and whether or not the courts will hold as a co-equal branch of government. Ms. Ifill is a renowned civil rights lawyer and scholar who served as the President and Director-Counsel of the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund, Inc.  Besides her many scholastic accolades, Ifill was also named one of the 100 Most Influential People in the World by TIME Magazine.

Angela Rye is joined by Texas State Representative Nicole Collier LIVE from the state house floor. 

 

The Texas House Speaker has directed state troopers to follow Democratic representatives, the ones who fled the state to quash a vote on redistricting earlier this month, until they vote on new electoral maps later this week. For refusing this Republican surveillance, Rep Collier has been detained on the house floor, where she’s been told she must remain until the vote is held, or she accepts police escort. She could be locked in for two whole days.
