The good people at Barbican have blessed me with an opportunity to cover a portion of their month-long programme called "Rebel Radio": "the sound of resistance and reinvention across this month-long celebration of pirate radio and its lasting impact on music, culture and community."For the first of three parts, I recap one of three talks they have and one of three film screenings. The talk is called "Rebel Archivist" featuring Oral Historian Dr. Aleema Gray, Writer Aniefiok Ekpoudom and Photographer Eddie Otchere. I then recap a screening called "Breaking the Silence: Pirate Radio, Black Media, and Voices of Resistance" which was an outstanding shift between two TV documentaries and two excerpts of two more docs, all to paint a picture in how TV covered Pirate Radio and the Black Arts.Thank you for listening!

Send us a textWhen LeBron James chose Pat McAfee's show over Black-hosted platforms to address Stephen A. Smith's criticism, he revealed the complex calculations Black public figures make in media. What does it mean when a Black superstar feels more comfortable in predominantly white spaces? Why do many prominent Black voices seek these "safer" environments for their most candid thoughts?The conversation deepens as we examine racial backlash against Marvel's Ironheart casting, exposing a disturbing pattern: even when characters are created as Black from inception (not "race-swapped"), certain audiences still react with hostility. This isn't about authenticity—it's about resistance to diversity itself. "Y'all just mad about seeing Black people," as one host aptly puts it, cutting through the pretense of legitimate criticism.We explore the unexpected controversy surrounding Peter Dinklage's criticism of the Snow White remake, where his advocacy inadvertently threatened job opportunities for other little people actors. This tension highlights how even well-intentioned criticism can have complex economic implications for marginalized communities, especially when coming from someone with established career security.Throughout our discussion, we examine how public figures from Rachel Zegler to government officials handle criticism and controversy in an age where personal expression, entertainment, and public perception continually collide. The striking contrast between accountability at different power levels—where everyday workers face severe consequences while political elites escape meaningful punishment for more serious lapses—reminds us that America's standards remain frustratingly inconsistent across racial, economic, and political lines.Join us for an unfiltered conversation that challenges conventional narratives about race, power, and whose voices truly matter in American media.

Send us a textIn his book The Squad, journalist Ryan Grim provides an account of the experiences of “The Squad,” a group of progressive legislators elected to the House of Representatives, as they attempted to govern. Their journey—from election victories to struggles with Republicans and Democratic leadership—is widely praised for its detailed investigation of the electoral and political “inside baseball” of the left. Grim's role as a critical figure in independent left media, through appearances on shows like Breaking Points and his publication Drop Site, further enhances the book's value as a vantage point for those interested in evaluating the rising establishment “Left” as a tool for advancing the interests of Black people and the Black community. It helps readers take stock of where the Left stands, where it might be going, and whether it can serve as a vehicle for achieving the Black community's goals.In conversation with Leaders of a Beautiful Struggle Director of Research Lawrence Grandpre, LBS Director of Public Policy Dayvon Love examines The Squad to uncover critical insights about both the Left and media analysis. Love highlights how the book reveals that, despite high-profile victories over Democratic Party establishment figures, the political Left suffers from a stunning lack of infrastructure. He links this to the Left's general failure to prioritize building political machinery and institutions. Grim's analysis of the Left's frustration with concepts like Tema Okun's “white supremacy culture” reflects the frustrations of grassroots advocates, who have seen anti-racism abstracts used by some to center conversations on personal feelings rather than delivering political outcomes for the communities they claim to serve.However, Love also critiques Grim's analysis, particularly his dismissal of cultural frameworks. In addressing Okun's “white supremacy culture,” Grim, like many on the Left, overcorrects by rejecting tools like African-centered analysis for political work. This is evident in his dismissal of Leonard Jeffries, the uncle of House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, whom Grim labels an “antisemite.” This overlooks valid concerns Black community advocates have raised about white advocates monopolizing resources intended for the Black community under the guise of representing their interests. By dismissing such critiques as “antisemitism,” Grim ironically mirrors the tactics he criticizes liberals for using—employing blanket accusations to sideline political conversations that challenge entrenched interests.Support the showIn Search of Black Power is a Black-owned internet show and podcast.

Drake vs Kendrick was in the airwaves but when Shaq released a diss track aimed at Sharpe, further mocking Sharpe's career and questioning his credibility as a sports analyst. This move added a layer of entertainment to their ongoing beef, highlighting the personal nature of their disagreement​. The beef between Shaquille O'Neal and Shannon Sharpe centers around comments Shaq made about Nikola Jokic and the 3rd MVP award in four years. During an "Inside the NBA" segment, Shaq expressed his opinion that Shai Gilgeous-Alexander "SGA" deserved the NBA's MVP award over Jokic, despite his respect for Jokic's game.Uncle Shay "Unc" responded on his "Nightcap" podcast, suggesting that Shaq's remarks were rooted in jealousy because Jokic's multiple MVP awards highlight what Sharpe perceives as Shaq's underachievement in his career. Sharpe criticized Shaq for not maximizing his potential, arguing that Shaq could have won more MVPs and championships if he had taken his career more seriously​.Did this overshadow the fact that Jokic's is now a 3x MVP and again not a US born player. That Shaq just Kanye West his moment. Or bigger play by media.... Tap in and let us know your thoughts on this Black in Sports episode....
