Christopher decided to go back to Wakanda and rewatch Black Panther. Turns out that movie is still dope. More importantly, Jeanette just got back from a vacation in Peru and there's lots to talk about.
Jeanette recaps her experience moderating a panel discussing multiracial research and weathering the weather of Boston, Massachusetts. And later Christopher and Jeanette discuss the inadequacies of some self-driving car algorithms and a recent video of white allies using their privilege and their bodies to become accomplices at a public hearing about the shooting of Stephon Clark.
Christopher and Jeanette celebrate (most of) the Oscars including multiple awards for Black Panther, Spike Lee finally getting his, and a mixed race Spider-Man. All this before discussing the issues surrounding Green Book. Later, we discuss the complexity around the phrase "white privilege" and revisit to the Jussie Smollett accusations of reporting a false hate crime and why it's difficult to believe everything that's being heard. 2019 Academy Awards (0:25) Jussie Smollett (18:45)
Back from winter break, Christopher and Jeanette catch up on recent news events before Jeanette shares stories from her most recent trip to South Africa. Then the conversation shifts to Black-ish's episode focused on colorism and a the presidential bids of Kamala Harris and Cory Booker.
Two quick stories are on the docket as Christopher and Jeanette say goodbye to the trash fire that was the non-stop reporting of racial injustice in 2018. Andrew Johnson's hair was not allowed in a high school wrestling match. And Jermaine Massey was kicked out of a hotel he was staying in because talking on the phone is perceived as a threat. Here's hoping 2019 will be better.
Ellen Pompeo is more or less the focus of the entire conversation this week as Christopher and Jeanette discuss her advocating for greater diversity in front of and behind the camera during a roundtable discussion for Porter magazine's annual Women in Television issue. Then we discuss her appearance on Jada Pinkett Smith's Red Table Talk and their conversation about interracial marriage. Happy holidays!
Happy holidays! This week is all about different examples of diversity in representation on screen - both film and television - and in college athletics. We're talking about The Lion King, Creed 2, and Dawn Staley, head coach of the women's basketball program at the University of South Carolina.
After a brief recap of the 2018 Midterm Elections, Jeanette shares her experience presenting at Association for the Study of Higher Education 2018 Annual Meeting, and Christopher tries not to get jealous hearing about Jeanette getting to see Michelle Obama.
Don't forget to vote! Christopher and Jeanette talk about Halloween costumes and Megyn Kelly's problem with blackface. Don't forget to vote! And we share our thoughts on the string of hate crimes - both attempted and actual. Don't. Forget. To. Vote.
Christopher got his flu shot, Jeanette...is still TBD. Meanwhile, Christopher's neighbors hosted a community conversation about race last week - lots to be encouraged by with that one. Then there's Kanye West...lots to be discouraged about with that one. And finally, Taylor Swift finally speaks up.
Jeanette has an update on her dissertation and Christopher is nursing a cold, but there's still opportunity to talk about all the insanity and privilege surrounding Brett Kavanaugh, a new study about bias in college admissions for black students and Netflix's Nappily Ever After. Don't forget to get your flu shot!
Jeanette saw Hamilton and Christopher upgraded his diabetes technology. After those pleasantries, Christopher and Jeanette discuss the murder of Botham Jean and ongoing smear campaign, and the the reaction to Serena Williams' standing up against sexism at the US Open.
Christopher got a puppy and Jeanette took a little vacation in Rome. Rather than spend the entire episode talking about positive things in the world, we also discuss Andrew Gillum's bid for Governor of Florida and Nike's newest face of their "Just Do It" campaign.
Fresh off a mini-vacation for Jeanette and a work trip in Baltimore for Christopher, it's time for a chat about the weekend box office success of Crazy Rich Asians, conflicting emotions around Omarosa, "The Talk", and a recent report from E:60 on the St. Frances Academy football team.
After a quick catch up about 23 and Me results, holding audience with the Queen, and health social media habits, Christopher and Jeanette discuss black pastors supporting Donald Trump, LeBron James opening a new school in Akron, and the importance of Crazy Rich Asians opening in theaters.
With Jeanette super busy, it's up to Christopher to touch on the beef between Daily Show host Trevor Noah and the Ambassador of France.
In an ongoing quest for opportunity and action, Christopher and Jeanette discuss the ongoing saga that is the current Administration's policy of separating families, various actions that will result in having the police called on people of color, and the racial diversity of Brazil and how international star Neymar da Silva Santos Júnior fits into the conversation.
With Christopher in Orlando for work and Jeanette in Nashville for family fun, the plan was for a short episode. You can look at the timestamps to see how that went. Christopher shares his recent published research on diabetes and aging, Jeanette talks about meeting Freedom Riders, and somehow Blue Bell ice cream found a way onto our list of discussion topics.
Happy Anniversary Mom and Dad! Let's chat about the newest exhibit in the National Museum of African American History and Culture's newest exhibit, "Watching Oprah: The Oprah Winfrey Show and American Culture". And, we're almost finished going through Vice's 100 Ways White People Can Make Life Less Frustrating For People of Color. There's a lot to talk about.
The NFL repeats "stand and show respect for the flag and the anthem" five times in a new policy statement. Jeanette is all about that Markle Sparkle in addition to her PhD pursuit. And of course, we continue to go in on Vice's 100 Ways White People Can Make Life Less Frustrating For People of Color. There's a lot to talk about.
There seems to be a growing list of things people of color can't do without having the police called - naturally, we have lots of thoughts. Later, we discuss the artistic intent of Childish Gambino's "This is America" and the the wide range of commentary about this timely, relevant music video. Finally, we continue to go in on Vice's 100 Ways White People Can Make Life Less Frustrating For People of Color.
Enough time has passed since "that Starbucks incident" that there's actually some meaningful commentary to fuel our discussion. After we explore the bizarre necessity to have straight, white men validate the existence of everyone else, we dig into Vice's 100 Ways White People Can Make Life Less Frustrating For People of Color.
Recapping recent, unfortunate events of America's trouble with race, lead us to find happier topics to discuss. Take Grown-ish, for example. When it gets it right, it really gets it right. And, we bend the knee and pay homage to Beyoncé's Coachella performance.
After a quick catch up on Jeanette's dissertation, Christopher and Jeanette recap the speeches and powerful moments from the March For Our Lives, and discuss Netflix's On My Block and some recent episodes of Black-ish.
Christopher and Jeanette cover a few odds and ends, including Jeanette's new hairdo, our dear friend Betsy DeVos, and another new house update from Christopher before rounding out their conversation on The Loving Generation and exploring the similarities and differences between the Black Lives Matter movement and the March for Our Lives.
After a brief chat about the Oscars and Jeanette getting a chance to see Christopher at work, it's time to dig into our thoughts on Black Panther, the value of representation, and the risk of cultural appropriation. We don't spoil the movie, but the conversation is more fun if you've seen it. Then, Jeanette introduces Christopher to the docu-series, "The Loving Generation" and a the diverse perspectives on race and identity that come from the generation of biracial children born between 1965 and 1985.
