Explain Boston to Me

The whitewashing of Boston with Dart Adams


Listen Later

In this week's episode, we're joined by Dart Adams, author, journalist, historian, and Black Bostonian. He talks about how the culture being exported by the city — the movies, TV shows, media, and memes — doesn't reflect the actual diversity of the community.

Here is Randolph and Mortimer Duke: "Turn those machines back on!"

And here is a video of Joel Embiid trolling the French fans.
