Salud!...to our ever increasing, diverse and especially loyal listenership. Check out our latest episode of Afronerd Radio'sMid Week in Review podcast airing this Wednesday at 7:30pm EST. Join Dburt and Capt. Kirk as they analyze the latest (mid) week topical concerns: President Obama causes a bit of a stir with his reference to embracing one's Blackness while delivering this years commencement address to Howard University graduates; and speaking of Blackness, another set of graduates, this time female cadets from the US Military Academy at West Point are causing a similar controversy over a photo showing them displaying the classic raised solidarity fist; our impression of the North Carolina transgender restroom law and its implications for society's future; Sundance TV might have a proxy for the X-men with its exciting Australian sci-fi series entitled, Cleverman which posits what would happen if only Aboriginals acquired superpowers (hmmm sounds like Kwanza Osajyefo's Black...aren't Aborigines also called Black?). And lastly, linguist/author and social commentator, Dr. John McWhorter waxes about the existence and development of the "blaccent" and does it accurately portray how the majority of African-Americans speak?
