Welcome back Battle Brothers!!!

In Part 2, we talk about Marks VII through X armor and talk about the tactical advantages of each armor and the battle application and effectiveness of each armor.

Suit up and let's get into it!!!!

One of the most iconic images that is common in the Warhammer 40k universe: An armored warrior clad in ceremite and adamantium, striding cross the battlefield with the grace of a demigod. That image is the Space Marine, and his armor-power armor is as much a symbol of the Imperium as the Aquilla itself.

In this episode, we will discuss the early primitive armor of the Thunder Warriors, and we'll discuss Marks I through Mark VI, the design features, battlefield effectiveness, and the cultural significance of each Mark or armor.

Suit up and let's get into it!!!

We conclude this series with revisiting how Black stories are affected when we own the whole damn house, and how they ar damaged when we are not in the room.

And....

We answer the question:

Who Gets To Tell Black Stories????

We've seen what happens when we are given the space, the power, the resources to tell our own stories.

But what about the other side?

In this episode we will talk about what happens when Black are told without Black voices. We'll talk about erasure, distortion, as well as the psychological toll this takes on Black audiences

We'll also ask (and answer) more questions:

Can a non-Black creator tell Black stories?

What can that non-Black creator do to bring respect, homage , and care to Black stories?

What does legacy look like for Black stories?

The question of who gets to tell Black stories is not nuanced....

It is, however a question that invites not only an answer, but a spirited, yet respectful discussion. What happens when Black stories are told by the creators and people that live them? What happens when Black creatives are not only in the room but run it? What happens Black creatives are not involved and the stories are told from a non-Black creative's lens, perspective, experience, perception, or idea? We will attempt to answer all those questions in this 3 part series.

I Know we don't talk about the failed reboot of "Good Times" by Netflix.

But.....

I would like talk about it. I'll start with the original and why it was so endearing, entertaining, how it became a cultural moment, and a flashpoint in Black television history.

We'll take. hard look at how this reboot missed the mark, what it got wrong by leaning on outdated stereotypes, and turned complex, heartfelt characters into loud caricatured punchlines, as well turning it raunchy and irreverent.

We'll also take a look what happens when reboots are done correctly, nd ask a very important question: Who gets to tell Black stories?

The Titan Legions have carved Their names in the glorious and violent history of the Imperium. In this final episode, we will explore the Imperiums most notable Titan Legions, their heraldry, their battle philosophy, and their most notable campaigns. We'll also take a look at the most notorious traitor Titan Legions, as well as the ever evolving xenos counters to the Titans. We will also take a look into the future of the Titans and the Collegia Titanica as a whole in the modern 41st millenium

In Part 2 of this series, we look a little deeper into the God -Engines. We look into the Collegia Titanica, the structure of a Titan Legion, the types of Titans , their armaments and roles.

We will also step away from the battlefield and into the cockpit of the minds that connect to these walking behemoths of destructive power.....the Princeps

We are diving back into 40k!!! This time we are diving into the Titans.....The devastating engines of war. This episode speaks of their beginnings i the Dark Age Of Technology. We delve into what Standard Template Constructs are, and how a Forge World forges a God Engine!!!

Anime is a medium that is normally looked at as either escapist, fantastical or niche.

But....

Did you know that anime is also a medium that tackles tough subjects?

From systemic discrimination, racism, the scars of social trauma, emotional pain, and mental health, anime continues to shine a light in the darkest corners of the human experience.

We are gonna go "Beneath The Surface", because thats where the truth lies-in the details, in the characters, in the moments that force u to reflect.
