On this episode Slauson Girl speaks with honorable Chairman Fred Hampton Jr. during his recent visit to Los Angeles where he also stopped in Leimert Park. The discussion covered his thoughts on the Los Angeles Black Panther Party, healing from decades of state sanctioned violence and repression of our Black political leaders, being brought on by Ryan Coogler as a consultant on the film 'Judas and the Black Messiah' which covers the cointelplro assassination of his father and more.
This week- two films about dreamers being betrayed by trusted individuals working for the government. In 1968, William O'Neal is arrested for attempting to steal a car while posing as a federal agent. While in custody he is approached by the FBI who make an offer he can't refuse- the charges will disappear if he infiltrates the Illinois chapter of the Black Panther Party and relays information on its leader, Fred Hampton. Based on a true story, the second feature from Shaka King, Judas and the Black Messiah. The CIA has secretly hires Professor Hathaway to make a laser weapon precise enough to carry out illegal political assassinations from outer space. Hathaway recruits a team of brilliant students to do the work for him as he redirects project funds to build a massive new house. As the deadline looms he recruits a budding genius in physics, Mitch, and places him under one of his heroes, Chris Knight, now a disillusioned slacker just trying to survive his final year. A 1980s comedy classic and one of the best college films of that century- Real Genius. All that and Dave pregames with the game, Tyler rides the movies like a pro, and Kevin plans a march of the squirrel army. Join us, won't you? Episode 413- Knight Betrayal
Holy smokes, theology nerds – buckle up for a prophetic ride through Black Christology that'll completely recalibrate your understanding of Jesus and faith in times of empire. I am joined by Dr. Adam Clark as he traces the revolutionary lineage from Howard Thurman's mystical Jesus who refuses the "hounds of hell" (after being called a traitor to dark peoples for following Christianity), through Albert Cleage's literal Black Messiah who'd be riding in the colored section of Jim Crow buses, to James Cone's God who shows up at the lynching tree. At a moment when Christian nationalism weaponizes the gospel to enforce xenophobic authoritarianism, this prophetic tradition reminds us that authentic Christian witness is found in loving solidarity with the crucified of today. This isn't polite reflection, friends – it's resistance theology that exposes how God deliberately identifies with the oppressed, choosing foolishness to shame the wise and weakness to shame the strong. This episode might flip your theological world upside down, but that's precisely what good theology should do. To get Adam's lecture and four more, join the class,The Many Faces of Christ Today. You can WATCH the conversation on YouTube Dr. Adam Clark is Associate Professor of Theology at Xavier University. He currently serves as co-chair of Black Theology Group at the American Academy of Religion, actively publishes in the area of black theology and black religion and participates in social justice groups at Xavier and in the Cincinnati area. He earned his PhD at Union Theological Seminary in New York where he was mentored by James Cone.

Based on Grace Ji-Sun Kim's groundbreaking work on the Holy Spirit (pneumatology), this class takes participants on a journey through biblical foundations, historical developments, diverse cultural perspectives, and practical applications of Spirit theology. Moving beyond traditional Western theological frameworks, we'll explore feminist interpretations, global perspectives, and innovative approaches to understanding the Spirit in today's world. Whether you've felt the Spirit was missing from your faith journey or are simply curious to deepen your understanding, this class creates space for thoughtful discussion, personal reflection, and spiritual growth.

Just when we thought we had our final rankings pretty much in the bag, Nickel Boys comes and changes everything. RaMell Ross's living piece of art took us all by surprise and moved us in ways we never expected. The performances were extraordinary, but the heart of the piece was in the direction and camera work. We'll be angrily shaking our fists for years to come that this didn't receive more nominations. Another year in the books, tell us your final rankings! Let us know on Twitter, Instagram or Threads!

He was oppressed and treated harshly, yet he never said a word. He was led like a lamb to the slaughter. And as a sheep is silent before the shearers, he did not open his mouth. (Is 53:7, NLT)

In this week's episode, we highlight the impactful career of actor Daniel Kaluuya. In his young career, Kaluuya has delivered several performances that will be cemented in the cinematic lore. We start with the under-seen, under-appreciated film Judas and the Black Messiah, in which Daniel Kaluuya plays activist and Black Panther chairman Fred Hampton. Second, Kaluuya stars in Jordan Peele's game-changing, modern classic Get Out. Finally, Kaluuya displays his acting and producing chops in the 2019 film Queen & Slim.Let us know what you think of these films and your favorite Daniel Kaluuya performance!❗️SEND US A TEXT MESSAGE ❗️Support the showSign up for our Patreon for exclusive Bonus Content.Follow the podcast on Instagram @gimmethreepodcastYou can keep up with Bella on Instagram @portraitofacinephile or Letterboxd You can keep up with Nick: on Instagram @nicholasybarra, on Twitter (X) @nicholaspybarra, or on LetterboxdShout out to contributor and producer Sonja Mereu.

Diese Woche reisen wir zurück zu den Oscars 2021 – die ersten, über die wir hier im Podcast gesprochen haben! Mit Filmen wie "Nomadland", "The Father", "Judas and the Black Messiah", "Sound of Metal" und "Promising Young Woman" war es ein Jahr voller großartiger Werke und katastrophaler Fehlentscheidungen. Doch welche davon haben die Zeit überdauert und welche wurden vielleicht überschätzt?Außerdem geht's um "Paddington in Peru". Unser Lieblingsbär ist wieder da und auch wenn er nicht ganz an seinen Vorgänger heranreicht, sorgen Olivia Colman und Antonio Banderas für jede Menge Charme. Ist der Film trotzdem ein würdiger Nachfolger?Dafür bahnt sich wohl einer der großen Flops des Jahres 2025 an: "Star Trek: Section 31". Ein Film, der bei Fans und Kritikern auf wenig Begeisterung stößt – warum? Wir nehmen das Sci-Fi-Desaster unter die Lupe.Mehr Hoffnung gibt es bei "Gladiator 2" mit Paul Mescal, Denzel Washington und Pedro Pascal. Kein Meisterwerk, aber eine beeindruckende Fortsetzung – lohnt sich das Ansehen?Und zum Schluss: Cameron Diaz ist zurück! Nach Jahren der Leinwandabstinenz feiert sie mit Jamie Foxx in "Back in Action" ihr großes Comeback. Kann die Actionkomödie überzeugen oder bleibt sie nur ein netter Nostalgie-Trip?Hausaufgabe für nächste Woche: "The Order" (Amazon Prime)#NapalmamMorgen

Ten years ago today D'angelo "Black Messiah" was released. The follow up to 2000's "Voodoo" it improbably lived up to the hype and cemented D's status as the keeper of the flame for a classic era of soul and funk music, but feeling fresh and contemporary. You know we need to represent "Black Messiah" by spinning a clutch of favourites including some unreleased versions and special bits. We are also blessed to have the brother Nicholas from 95bFM Friday Drive up to spin some faves and classics, and the man comes correct. Churness!
This week we're discussing every album by D'Angelo. Don't let his over the top sensual music video for “Untitled (How Does It Feel)” turn you off (or on), D'Angelo is the R&B artist to convert any skeptics. Jazz, hip hop, soul, funk, and brilliant collabs with Questlove and J Dilla. A truly fantastic songwriter and performer. I hope you all have spare underwear ready.Closing track: “1000 Deaths” from Black Messiah (2014)Patreonhttps://www.patreon.com/everyalbumeverMerchhttps://pandermonkey.creator-spring.com/Mike's EP:Pander Monkey on Bandcamp, Spotify, Apple,Instagram:Mike @pandermonkeyAlex @everyalbumalexTom @tomosmansoundsHistory Tom's stuff:Music on Spotify, ApplePodcast on Spotify, YouTubeSubstackWebsiteMike's Picks:Black Messiah (2014) — Best AlbumBrown Sugar (1995) — Personal FavoriteVoodoo (2005) — Worst Album, Least FavoriteAlex's Picks:Voodoo (2000) — Best AlbumBlack Messiah (2014) — Personal FavoriteBrown Sugar (1995) — Worst Album, Least FavoriteAlbums we discussed this episode…Brown Sugar (1995)Voodoo (2000)Black Messiah (2014)
On this episode we're talking about comebacks and reinventions with three legendary albums: Black Messiah by D'Angelo, Mama Said Knock You Out by LL Cool J and The Emancipation of Mimi by Mariah Carey. These albums proved that each of these artists could come back from a down period in their careers and deliver some of their best work.Yeah, we should have called this episode “Don't Call It A Comeback” but we already have one (Episode 39, go check it out) with that title.

Welcome to another episode of WorkTape, where we continue our journey through 2014, a year packed with genre-defining albums and exciting shifts in the music industry. From D'Angelo's long-awaited return with "Black Messiah" to the high-energy pop of Walk the Moon's "Talking is Hard," we dive deeply into the year's most notable releases. We also touch on Bleachers' "Strange Desire" and how the sound of indie rock evolved throughout the 2010s. Tune in as we explore these transformative albums and more, reflecting on their impact 10 years later.Episode Highlights:How did D'Angelo's "Black Messiah" influence the neo-soul resurgence in the 2010s?Was Walk the Moon's "Shut Up and Dance" an unexpected pop anthem or overplayed phenomenon?Was it mainly Bleachers' debut album "Strange Desire" that cemented Jack Antonoff's role as an indie pop force?Did Maroon 5's shift to a more pop-centric sound on "V" signal the band's creative decline?Was Train's music too “safe” and “inoffensive”?Was 2014 the true “nail-in-the-coffin” for the Mumford & Sons era of folk-rock.

Today's Ohio State Reformatory The Mansfield Reformatory Preservation Society is a non-profit overseen by a volunteer Board and every donation goes directly to the maintenance and restoration of the building. The Reformatory houses the official Ohio State Corrections History Museum, is a popular site for ghost hunters and paranormal enthusiasts, hosts numerous special events, and as of 2018 welcomes more than 120,000 visitors per year. The building's striking architecture is a favorite choice for filmmakers. A number of films and music videos have been made at OSR over the years, with The Shawshank Redemption as the best known and most widely loved. Other films include: Harry and Walter Go to New York, Tango and Cash, Air Force One, Escape Plan: The Extractors and Judas and the Black Messiah. Design and Construction The Ohio State Reformatory was designed by Cleveland architect Levi Scofield. Scofield designed the striking limestone building to be an uplifting, inspiring, and intimidating structure. The Reformatory was originally called the “Intermediate Penitentiary” since it accepted inmates who were too old for juvenile corrections but had committed offenses more minor than those that sent others to the Ohio State Penitentiary. The facility admitted its first inmates in 1896 after ten years of construction. Reformation and Rehabilitation The goal of the institution was truly to “reform” and rehabilitate its inmates, who received three things during their time at OSR: religion, education, and a trade. Inmates were admitted for 18 months, and if they showed progress, they could be released after that time. If not, they received another 18 months. The model was successful and OSR had a high success rate and a low recidivism rate.

The FBI-orchestrated murder of Black Panther Party leader Fred Hampton in 1969 remains one of the most singularly evil crimes of the 20th century, and it's a story about which most Americans know very little. The 2021 film Judas and the Black Messiah, directed by Shaka King, is a heavy, detailed consideration of the events that led to Hampton's death, focusing mainly on the figure of William O'Neal, a small-time thief coerced by the FBI into becoming a confidential informant working within Hampton's organization. As Justin and I discuss in this episode, the film puts us in the center of the complicated moral calculations that defined 1960s radicalism, and asks hard questions about the price of loyalty, freedom, and revolution.

The Context of White Supremacy welcomes Jeffrey Haas. A long time attorney for the People's Law Office in Illinois, Haas represented Fred Hampton and member's of Chicago's chapter of the Black Panther Party. Haas talked with Hampton and heard him speak against Racism on a regular basis. Hampton had such an impact that Haas remained dedicated to fighting to expose the government-led, White Supremacist conspiracy to assassinate the young chairman. He compiled the years of deceptions and courtroom battles in his 2010 book, The Assassination of Fed Hampton: How the FBI and the Chicago Police Murdered a Black Panther. We'll discuss the role of FBI informant William O'Neal, a black male recruited to spy on black people when he was 19-years-old. O'Neal is accused of drugging Hampton the December night in 1969 when the Panther leader was killed in his sleep. He admitted to providing a detailed floor-plan of the premises. Haas describes O'Neal as a "moral eunuch." We'll discuss the years of lies to conceal this unjust murder and how Fred Hampton's assassination relates to other incidents of Chicago history, like the murder of Emmett Till and the Torture of black males by former Police chief Jon Burge. We'll be sure to ask for Mr. Haas's views on the film Judas & The Black Messiah as well as his upbringing in Racist Atlanta, Georgia. Mr. Haas got riled when Gus referred to his longtime White comrade and former C.O.W.S. guest Bill Ayers as a criminal. Ayers, as a part of The Weathermen, was complicit in the bombing of the Pentagon and the US Capitol building. This is the same sort of minimizing and absolving of White Terrorist behavior we've been discussing with Columbine and Chicago native Ted 'Unabomber' Kaczynski. #LenardClark #TheCOWS14Years INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 605.313.5164 CODE: 564943#
