Ep.242 Shaunté Gates (b. 1979) lives and works in Washington, D.C. He studied at Duke Ellington School of the Arts and Bowie State University. Early in his career, Gates trained in oil painting and portraiture. His past experience as a tattoo artist and television motion graphics editor caused a profound shift in his artistic practice. His recent work employs a multidisciplinary approach, layering photography, painting, and found text to create dreamlike landscapes that explore labyrinthine social constructs and the physical sites that house and perpetuate them. Echoing the aesthetics of paper theater, his compositions unfold like intricate stage sets, where layered imagery and shifting perspectives evoke a sense of constructed reality and theatrical illusion. Gates was a participating artist in the Smithsonian Institution's “Men of Change” four-year traveling exhibition spanning ten museums, including the International African American Museum in Charleston, SC, California African American Museum, Cincinnati Underground Railroad Museum and Washington State History Museum (2019-23). He has been awarded the Louis Comfort Tiffany Biennial Grant (2022) and residencies with The Nicholson Project (2023), The Kennedy Center (2019) and Washington Project for the Arts (2018; 2017). Gates has work in esteemed private collections and institutions such as the Studio Museum in Harlem and Munson, Utica, NY. He has completed many public art commissions including Transcending, a painting commemorating the 140th anniversary of Howard University School of Law.  Photo credit: Biko Gates Artist https://www.shauntegates.com/ Virginia Tech https://artscenter.vt.edu/exhibitions/shaunte-gates.html Sperone Westwater  https://www.speronewestwater.com/artists/shaunte-gates#tab:slideshow Marc Straus https://marcstraus.com/artists/98-shaunte-gates/ FAD Magazine https://fadmagazine.com/2025/03/03/marc-straus-gallery-now-represent-shaunte-gates/ Zidoun-Bossuyt https://zidoun-bossuyt.com/artists/shaunte-gates/ | https://zidoun-bossuyt.com/exhibitions/shaunte-gates-poppies-parachutes-iii-we-should-be-flying-by-now/ Smithsonian https://menofchange.si.edu/exhibit/artist-pairings/shaunte-gates/ The Roanoker  https://theroanoker.com/events/shaunt%C3%A9-gates-2025/ Phillips Collection https://www.phillipscollection.org/event/2024-08-25-collaging-shaunte-gates Brooklyn Rail https://brooklynrail.org/2023/10/artseen/Shaunt-Gates-In-Light-of-the-Hunt/ Culture Type https://www.culturetype.com/tag/shaunte-gates/ Washington Informer Bridge https://wibridgedc.com/the-transformative-power-of-found-objects-with-shaunte-gates/ RUSH Philanthropic https://rushphilanthropic.org/artist/shaunte-gates/

Amanda introduces a new segment called "Voting and Venting," aiming to address voter apathy in the Black community and restore belief in the political system by providing historical knowledge and current information. She discusses recent headlines, from the reopening of areas in West Maui following wildfires to the end of criminal prosecutions in the Flint Water Crisis, and Magic Johnson becoming a billionaire.

Listen, Laugh, and Learn with The Amanda Seales Show FOLLOW ALONG AS WE COVER:   (4:07) - Black models boycotted Melbourne Fashion Week due to racism in Australian fashion industry. The models shared that they've seen staff use racial slurs in front of them, and hairdressers are not shy when it comes to making derogatory and degrading comments about their hair. Two models said they discovered they were grossly underpaid compared to their white counterparts.   (7:47) - It's the Amanda Seales Show, I'm Amanda Seales… And now it's time for a segment, we're calling “Voting and Venting."   Voter apathy is a serious issue in the Black community for numerous reasons, like, ya know, voter disenfranchisement! But I personally believe that with more historical knowledge and current information, our belief in the political system can be restored. In this segment, we're gonna vent a little, but also weigh in on some important voting matters with experts.   (11:04) - 60 Second Headlines   Story 1: Today areas of West Maui will reopen to tourism following the deadliest US wildfire in more than a century.   Story 2: More than two months after white boaters attacked a Black riverboat captain in Montgomery, Ala., two of the five people charged in the Alabama Brawl have pleaded guilty.   Story 3: The next installment of National Geographic's GENIUS franchise will focus on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X, and how their dueling philosophies helped usher America through the Civil Rights Movement. The eight-part series “Genius: MLK/X” will premiere in February on the National Geographic channel.   Story 4: The Michigan Attorney General's Office is officially ending its pursuit of criminal prosecutions over the Flint Water Crisis after 7 years of no convictions.

We'll tell you how. That's not my ministry with Rita Brent plus, today's Big Up/Let Down starring Lauryn Hill and a former NBA basketball player.   (18:30) - Bowie State University is the first HBCU to offer Maryland inmates the opportunity to complete study courses. Students can get their degree while behind bars, all thanks to a partnership between Bowie State and Jessup Correctional Institute. Since the initiative launched this year, seven men who are studying to obtain either a bachelor's degree or Entrepreneurship certificate have completed their first semester.   (21:57) - That's not my ministry with Rita Brent.   (26:00) - Big Up - Goes to Lauryn Hill's fans for sticking beside her! Recently announced she is postponing her Fort Worth Tour Date To “Rest The Voice” due to vocal strain. She's had a history of showing up late to shows and performing for a brief time. Fans continue to buy tickets, support, and root her on. Side note: Beyonce did 50-11 shows domestically and internationally, while being a mom, dancing hard AF, dropping a perfume line, and didn't complain about vocal or body strain. Maybe Lauryn needs to be on her diet OR let the crowd sing the lyrics.   Let Down - To Joe Smith and his wife for doing a live advertisement on Twitter, thinking we wouldn't figure it out! His longtime partner posted a video of him reacting in real time to her saying she has an Only Fans account. She continued to record him despite his visible anger; it all bordered disrespect for the sake of clout.   (29:29) - We'll go to the phone lines.   (31:42) - Coming up this hour… Khia says she isn't like the new rap girls.

Welcome to "The Bible in Today's World", the show that compares today's world with the Word of God. In general and specifically, are we following the Bible in our daily walks? Is society demanding that we follow the Word of God in all that we do? Does our Almighty Father look upon us and frequently say, "Well done, good and faithful servant!" - or is He thinking of us as He thought/thinks of Sodom and Gomorrah? On today;'s show, we will explore "False Bible Teachings, Part 2". We also played Part 2 of my interview with Christian Author, ROSEMARIE DOWNER. ROSEMARIE DOWNER, a follower of Jesus Christ; a longtime youth minister; founder and former President of BRYDGES (Building Responsible Youth by Delivering Genuine Enrichment Services); a social science researcher; and author, will join us to discuss her career; life; belief in Jesus Christ; and all of her books, including a recent release, "D's and F's Won't Do".

4.5.2023 #RolandMartinUnfiltered: MS Capitol Police House Bill, TN Teacher Guns Bill, IL Johnson Wins Chicago Mayoral Race  The Mississippi legislature has voted to expand the Capitol Police in Jackson, the state's predominantly black capital city.  We will explain what the bill does and how this will impact the city, and who governs Jackson. Wisconsin Supreme Court's had a record-breaking turnout for Tuesday's election, with Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Janet Protasiewicz defeating former Justice Dan Kelly.  We will discuss what this means for upcoming legislation and how the new balance of power can reshape the state. Chicago has a brand new Mayor as Cook County Commissioner Brandon Johnson is the projected 57th Mayor of Chicago.  We will examine how Johnson's strategy of debating on local issues and branching out to local/ small media helped him overcome his tight race in Chicago. A Tennessee House subcommittee approved a bill allowing teachers to carry guns in schools.  We will break down what is happening in Tennessee and give an update on the three legislatures who could be expelled to support constituents who want tighter gun control in Tennessee. Bowie State University honored legendary artist Dionne Warwick by naming its performing arts facility after her.  I was there.  We will show you some of that ceremony.
