Ok, Let's jump up to (not) get beat down! Huzzah!  Welcome to the latest installment of Afronerd Radio'sGrindhouse airing this Wednesday at 7:30pm EST. Join Dburt and Capt. Kirk as thy tackle the following (mid) week topics: President Trump recent executive order banning entrance to the U.S. from 7 countries causes protests, controversies and public outrage appears to be "just another day" under this new and unique regime; Trump's Director of Communications and long time media/business associate, Omarosa Manigault, causes a stir during her interview with the ladies from The View; with the non contract renewal/demotion of a number of high profile Black news correspondents (i.e. Tamron Hall, Al Roker and Joy Reid), Dburt wonders when will Black media opt out for a true African-American owned and directed operation? (No Black version of RT News, The Young Turks or The Blaze?); Dburt picks up where he left off discussing Negro League executive/Newark Eagles owner, Effa Manley; and by coincidence Michael Jackson's daughter's Blackness offends Black twitter when being raised culturally Black is pretty common for people with murky racial origins (ask Wallace Fard Muhammad and Mrs. Manley); Academy Award winning director, Ben Affleck leaves The Batman (as director) but will maintain acting duties as the Caped Crusader; Emmett Till's accuser admits she lied more than half a century later.  And lastly, author/attorney, Lawrence Otis Graham, revists vintage African-American excellence in a NY Times piece highlighting a new book entitled, The Original Black Elite: Daniel Murray and the Story of a Forgotten Era.  Call the hosts live at 646-915-9620.
