Not every flop is a failure of effort, often it's a failure of strategy. In this episode of Got Marketing?, Mia is joined by Campaign Del Mar's community manager Lillie Brown to break down two recent brand campaigns that looked similar on the surface…but performed very differently in the wild. Think: celebrity endorsement, hero video content, big-budgets but only one of them hit the mark. Together, they unpack what made the Bonds x Robert Irwin campaign so wildly effective (yep, it's not just the wildlife), and why Michael Hill x Miranda Kerr felt flat despite all the polish. If you've ever wondered why some brand campaigns stick while others disappear without a trace —this episode is a must.

It's rare to hear someone call hope a “bad strategy” but Dr. Charisse Burden-Stelly doesn't sugarcoat the truth. In a conversation with Focus: Black Oklahoma's Anthony Cherry, the Wayne State University Black Studies, political economy scholar, and author of Black Scare/ Red Scare: Theorizing Capitalist Racism in the United States explores the long history of racism, resistance, and radical ideas in this country.

After all, this was right after the McGirt decision, which returned criminal jurisdiction to tribal nations in Oklahoma when they involve Native people-like Michael. But, Michael's case was complicated-because of his status as a Black man with no blood quantum, his case did not qualify to be transferred. In this series, we've been exploring how centuries old laws have impacted people like Michael, and his brother Mikail, who was murdered in 2016. His case was transferred out of state court-even though like Michael, he is an enrolled Cherokee Freedmen.
