(Airdate 1/18) The weekend is almost here, but let’s stay focused on these ‘Good, Bad, and Ugly Headlines’ (0:00), where Trump has his eyes on a VP. In Uvalde, TX parents learn the truth about the police response to the 2022 elementary school mass shooting. Then we are joined by a friend of the show A. Prince Albert III - Social Entrepreneur; (Goldwater Ventures), Tech Policy, and Civil Rights Expert to talk about the new Ava Duvernay movie “ORIGIN (2024)” starring Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor which is an adaptation of the book “Caste” by Isabel Wilkerson and the unique way this film was made (14:00). Before he leaves, A. Prince Albert III, connects us to his Gullah Geechee roots and the story of Miss Josephine Wright and Black erasure in the community (26:00). In the ‘Quiet Part Out Loud’, (45:40) we hear Sec. of State Anthony Blinken do that very thing in response to a question about the war in Gaza. Last, but not least, ‘Let Me Finish’ (47:24) by telling you why the 40th anniversary of the Sundance Film Festival is ‘most likely to succeed’.
