BrownTown discusses "Life" (1999) with trina reynolds tyler & Maira Khwaja of TM Productions and the Invisible Institute. The double duo breakdown the cult classic's coverage of US incarceration through the decades, respectability politics within Black and Southern white culture, the guilty-innocent dichotomy through an abolitionist lens, and the relatability and timelessness of '90's buddy comedies. The comedy-drama follows two Black men, loudmouth Harlem grifter Ray and the no-nonsense Claude, during 1930's Prohibition era who are forced to team up on a bootlegging mission to Mississippi that could solve their money troubles with a New York gangster. But they run into more trouble when a crooked, racist white Sheriff hits them with a phony murder charge and they are given lifetime prison sentences.

It's been decades since house and techno music exploded out of South Side Chicago and inner-city Detroit, and most Americans still don't know their dance music history. In 1977 a DJ named Frankie Knuckles moved to Chicago to spin and remix disco records at an underground club called The Warehouse. Out of a fringe subculture that formed there - gay and African-American - house music would emerge to become one the biggest club music genres in the world. Meanwhile, young black futurists of Detroit channeled their city's post-industrial decay into a utopian machine music known as techno. APWW #619 Produced by Marlon Bishop and Wills Glasspiegel

Olufunmilayo “Funmi” Olopade, director for the Center for Clinical Cancer Genetics and Global Health at the University of Chicago, credits her Nigerian upbringing for her focus on global cancer genetics.“My Yoruba culture really worships our ancestors and the people before us,” Olopade said on the Cancer History Project podcast. “And so that's why I was able to really say, ‘Okay, let's lay the foundation for genetics. Let's go to Nigeria.'”Olopade appears on this special Black History Month episode of the Cancer History Project Podcast in conversation with Robert A. Winn, director and Lipman Chair in Oncology at VCU Massey Comprehensive Cancer Center and guest editor for The Cancer Letter for Black History Month highlighting some of the giants in the field of cancer research.This episode is sponsored by City of Hope, the American Society of Clinical Oncology, Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center at Johns Hopkins, and the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center.Olopade is certainly a giant in cancer genetics and global health.“For those of you who don't know, Dr. Olopade is not only the director of the Center for Clinical Cancer Genetics and Global Health at the University of Chicago, but she is really a giant in the field and internationally renowned in the context of her expertise in breast cancer,” Winn said on the podcast. “By the way, for those of you who thought you knew Dr. Olopade, remember that she is a really rare, not only National Academy, but in that top 1% of 1% of the 2025 MacArthur Fellowship, also known as the Genius Grant.”On this episode of the Cancer History Project Podcast, Olopade shares her story of immigrating to the U.S. from Nigeria to pursue medicine, and finding her way to becoming a leading expert in oncology.“For us to honor Black History Month, we have to honor all the people who mentored us, who were ahead of us,” Olopade said. “For me, my father was a pastor, and my parents really wanted a doctor. I had big brothers and sisters, I was number 5 of 6 children, and there was just one last chance to find a doctor in the family. Because in those days, growing up in Nigeria, you were either a teacher or a pastor, or and then in his generation he became a pastor.”Growing up in Nigeria, Olopade was deeply influenced by the health disparities she saw due to lack of healthcare access, which initially sparked an interest in cardiology.Explore related articles and read the full transcript: https://cancerhistoryproject.com/article/funmi-olopade-podcast/

Episode 12.05The Living Full Out show with Nancy Solari invites you to explore having love as the bridge. When challenges feel overwhelming or the path ahead seems uncertain, Nancy reminds us that love can guide us between where we are and where we're meant to be. Purpose is built through intention, and leadership begins within. When you lead with love and focus on what truly matters, you create momentum that carries you forward and allows you to live boldly, and with heart.Our first caller, Paolo, is a student working to balance staying active with the demands of school. While he values his mental and physical well-being, limited time often makes balance feel out of reach. Nancy validates this pressure and reframes his challenge as an opportunity to lead himself and his time with purpose. She encourages him to align daily choices with intention rather than reacting to a busy schedule. She also emphasizes the power of language, reminding Paolo that shifting his inner dialogue toward clarity and self-trust can remove mental blocks. Balance comes from focusing your energy on what truly matters most.Our inspirational guest, Reggie Currie, embodies what it means to live with purpose through creativity, resilience, and heart. Growing up in South Side Chicago and later navigating major changes at a young age, Reggie found an unexpected outlet in dance. This allowed him to transform rhythm into a source of connection and self-expression. Even through periods of separation and service in the military, Reggie remained intentional about using dance as a bridge. What began as a passion became a lifelong path, expressed through mascotting, leading him to bring joy to communities. Through every chapter of his life, Reggie shows how purpose can be expressed through movement, shaping personal growth and a lasting impact on others.If life feels complicated, love can become the bridge that steadies you. It carries you forward through consistency and the choice to keep showing up, even when results feel far away. Growth often unfolds quietly through compassion and trust. When you stay connected to what matters most and move with care for yourself and others, confidence builds naturally over time. Love bridges where you are with where you're becoming, allowing you to keep living full out.  Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/living-full-out-show--1474350/support.

On a sweltering July night in 1966, Richard Speck forced his way into a South Side Chicago townhouse filled with young student nurses. By morning, eight women were dead—strangled, stabbed, and terrorized in what became known as the Chicago Nurse Massacre. Only one survivor lived to tell the tale, her testimony etching this crime into history.In this episode of Terrifying & True, we unravel the story of Richard Speck—his violent past in Texas, the night of horror that gripped Chicago, the frantic manhunt, and the dramatic trial that ended with a shocking twist in the justice system. From Speck's infamous “Born to Raise Hell” tattoo to the disturbing prison tape that surfaced decades later, this is the complete, harrowing account of one of America's darkest crimes.We're telling that story tonight.

This conversation is a deep breath before the hustle and crawl of the coming weeks. Thank you so much for listening!

This week on the Sumud Podcast, we're joined by Aminah Musa, a visionary designer, entrepreneur, and co-founder of PaliRoots—the beloved Palestinian streetwear brand born of resistance and stitched with purpose. From growing up on food stamps in South Side Chicago to helping build a brand that has fed nearly 4 million meals in Gaza, Aminah's story is one of family, faith, creativity, and commitment to her roots. Raised by Palestinian parents who instilled in her the values of humility, community, and pride in her heritage. In this deeply personal and powerful episode, she opens up about navigating high school as the only visibly Muslim girl, learning business from her father (who left medicine to pursue purpose), and launching PaliRoots with her brother to ensure Palestine would never be forgotten. Their brand became more than fashion—it became a movement grounded in dignity, storytelling, and direct impact.

Habemus Papam! The Church has a new pope—and he's from Chicago. In this episode, Father Dave and Deacon Bob react with joy, awe, and a healthy dose of disbelief to the election of Pope Leo XIV, a South Side Chicago native and fellow “Bob.” The first American pontiff, Leo XIV is an Augustinian, missionary, canon lawyer, and lifelong baseball fan with deep roots in both Villanova and Peru. His election is already making waves—and memes. Before diving into Vatican news, the hosts process a different kind of drama: sports heartbreak. Bob relives the Cleveland Cavaliers' playoff collapse—one for the record books—and the deep disappointment that followed. Father Dave offers perspective (and a hopeful prediction) before they shift gears to highlight Franciscan University's Commencement weekend. From Mary Rice Hasson's bold defense of the human person to Bishop Andrew Cozzens' catechetical preaching, the event was a joyful witness to faith and truth. Finally, they unpack the significance of the name Leo, what this new pope may prioritize, and how the legacy of Pope Leo XIII—with his groundbreaking encyclicals on labor, justice, and the Holy Spirit—may resonate in the years ahead. From Chicago sports to conclave suspense, from Catholic memes to Marian devotion, this episode is a fast-paced blend of humor, reverence, and hope for the Church's future under a pope who, as Bob puts it, “plays Wordle with his brother and orders from Wawa.”   Resources Mentioned The Becket Fund for Religious Liberty Rerum Novarum by Pope Leo XIII Pope Leo XIV – Live Coverage and Commentary (Vatican News)

Send us a textLynn's Chicago Pizza began with Lynn Humphrey and Brandon Bruner, Sr. trying to solve a problem. They couldn't get pizza delivered to their Southside Chicago neighborhood so Brandon, a trained chef, began experimenting with making a Chicago Deep Dish pizza. Soon, they started making pizza for friends and family. The two started selling pizza at a nearby bar and the virtual pizzeria was born doing popups.  They ventured into a brick-and-mortar restaurant partnership but soon realized that they wanted to create their own vision in their Woodlawn neighborhood that was in need of restaurant options. Landing the location that the two had their eye on came with an application process. After great strides, Lynn's Chicago Pizza opened serving up deep dish and Chicago thin crust pizza.  Lynn and Brandon opened more than a pizzeria. Lynn's serves as a community hub with events and special nights for people to gather.  Their efforts have drawn local and national attention. Brandon and Lynn share how they've built momentum for their young business. Learn more about Lynn's Chicago Pizza at https://lynnschipizza.com/ and on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/lynnschicagopizza/   

Dravon was the eldest of the three kids  and would sometimes hear her mom crying at night. That was really hard for Dravon because she knew how hard her mother had worked and how much she gave up in order to give her children a solid family foundation and a good education. So Dravon was afraid to disappoint her mom because of all the sacrifices her mom had made for the family. Now, Davon is a doctor, an author and a Life Coach.  She has so much to thank her mother for, including how her mom instilled in her the power of positive thinking, hard work the power of forgiveness.In Dravon's new book, “Forgiveness: The Pathway to Happiness,” she shares her expertise and personal experience with forgiveness. She teaches that "it is not denial, amnesia, or even reconciliation, but a pathway to peace and a lifetime practice."  A few inspirational influencers include Oprah Winfrey, Miya Angelou and Dr. Norman Vincent Peale.As a young child, my guest's journey began in poverty on the South Side of Chicago. Though she had always dreamt of a career on the stage, Dravon went on to earn a doctorate in pharmacy from Creighton University and has worked as a pharmacist for over 30 years. A leader in the healthcare industry , she is the recipient of the Secretary McDonough Coin of Recognition for her leadership efforts to combat the COVID pandemic.Along with her medical career and theatrical aspirations, Dr. Dravon has always had a keen interest in personal development. After reading Norman Vincent Peale's The Power of Positive Thinking in college, she went on to make a lifelong study of the power we all have to create the life we want.Ruby wasn't all hard work and business. Because of her Southside of Chicago roots, she was the queen of "Chicago Steppin.' Chicago Steppin', which I was not familiar with until Dravon shared this story of her mom's  love of dancing, is a unique and improvisational partner dance, originated in Chicago's Southside and is rooted in soul, jazz, and R&B music, with influences from styles like the Chicago Bop, Lindy Hop, and Western Swing.Dr. Jame's says her mother always instilled in her children to "be dogmatic and be committed to something." Ruby was unwavering, reflects James.

Rounding out our coverage of the 2025 Academy Award nominees, we are joined by producers Bill Morrison (“Decasia”, “The Dockworker's Dream”, Dawson City: Frozen Time) and Jamie Kalven (of the Invisible Institute) to discuss their Oscar-nominated short, “Incident,” which depicts the police shooting of Harith “Snoop” Augustus and it's immediate aftermath from several angles.     Using body camera and other footage (and only that footage) that the Chicago Police–as required by law, one that Jamie had advocated for in the wake of the coverup of the shooting of Laquan McDonald–Bill has crafted a film which draws upon editing skills built through years of working with archival material, but one which is significantly more immediate and urgent than his previously beautiful and implicitly philosophically profound works.  What we witness is two narratives being formed about what happened, and to whom:  One from the police, the other from the Southside Chicago community that witnessed the events.  And we can see at work the deep causes of what happened embedded in American gun culture and the resulting police policies and practices.   “Incident” can be seen on the New Yorker Website.   Follow: @emaexplorations on Instagram and X @topdocspod on Instagram and X    The Presenting Sponsor of "Top Docs" is Netflix.

In this episode of Better for America, host Rebecca Weber speaks with Terry Newsome, host of the Behind Enemy Lines podcast, about the rise of violent crime and human trafficking in America specifically in the Democrat-ran city of Chicago. Terry, a former Democrat and South Side Chicago native, shares his experiences with the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua, which has infiltrated Chicago's suburbs. He recounts how gang members were bused into his community and describes a tense encounter with GardaWorld, a security company hired by Mayor Brandon Johnson. As he puts it “We're basically giving our tax dollars to an international security company that doesn't have our best interests in mind.” Newsome explains how these events are impacting local neighborhoods and the efforts to suppress public awareness. Listen as he recounts his efforts to document and confront the challenges facing his community.

He describes various successful community events, such as movie nights, indoor carnivals, and a popular haunted house that attracts thousands of attendees each year.

Bishop Pope emphasizes the importance of creating a welcoming environment during sacrament meetings and adapting the format to engage attendees better. He shares strategies for making church services more dynamic and inclusive, such as varying the types of talks and encouraging participation from all members, regardless of their background. The discussion culminates in a focus on the recent influx of migrants to Chicago, with Bishop Pope advocating for compassion and support for these new neighbors, regardless of political views.

Eating continues to cost more, even as overall inflation has eased from the blistering pace consumers endured throughout much of 2022 and 2023. Prices at restaurants and other eateries were up 5.1% last month compared with January 2023, while grocery costs increased 1.2% during the same period, Labor Department data show. https://www.the-sun.com/money/10460920/red-lobster-makes-change-deal-customers-losses/ After it was solidified, those who took advantage of the bottomless shrimp deal seemingly ate so much that it directly affected financial losses for Red Lobster at the end of 2023, per CNN. Third-quarter earnings reports from Red Lobster noted an $11 million operating loss, of which the Ultimate Endless Shrimp was seemingly directly part. The deal was offered first at $20 for all-you-can-eat shrimp at Red Lobster and was slowly increased to $23 and $25, but the price hike didn't prevent the financial decline. In the fourth quarter of 2023, those losses increased to $12.5 million. [SEGMENT 1-2] Paramount layoffs Harvard students went on a hunger strike…missed a whole meal in support of Hamas… More than 30 pro-Palestinian Harvard students participated in a 12-hour hunger strike Friday in solidarity with students at Brown University pressuring the Brown Corporation to divest from Israel. How harrowing that must have been for them… [X] SB – Woman describes all the businesses that left Oakland They are going to beg white people to come gentrify that city Dunkin Donuts…gone Starbucks…gone Raising Cane…gone Walmart…GONE! Several CBS News reporters were caught up in layoffs at Paramount Global that claimed 800 jobs, including one who is embroiled in a high-stakes First Amendment fight — and another who has reportedly weathered HR probes over his workplace behavior, The Post has learned. Catherine Herridge — an award-winning senior correspondent whose First Amendment case is being closely watched by journalists nationwide — was among the hundreds of employees at CBS parent Paramount who got pink slips on Tuesday, sources told The Post. The carnage provoked outrage from the rank-and-file at CBS, with some focusing their ire on Paramount Global CEO Bob Bakish, who pulled down $32 million in total compensation last year despite the company's ever-shrinking financial profile. “Everybody in the newsroom is pissed that Bob Bakish is making over $30 million and he's making these cuts,” one insider fumed. Elsewhere, some suspected the layoffs were more than just cost-cutting. Sources said Herridge had clashed with CBS News president Ingrid Ciprian-Matthews — a sharp-elbowed executive who was investigated in 2021 over favoritism and discriminatory hiring and management practices, as revealed by The Post. [SEGMENT 1-3] KFC closings in Chicago 1 Things must be bad in Chicago when this 100-year-old franchise decides to abandon one of its key customer bases. But when crime is as bad as it is in the Windy City, no business can survive. Following the wave of location closings in bad neighborhoods in Democrat-controlled cities all over the country, a KFC franchisee called it quits in three South Side Chicago locations with no warning, according to news sources. Things were going so badly for the franchise owner, that he scuttled the outlet located in Chatham, which had been "undergoing renovations for months". He simply boarded up the building. Such actions are not unique, a month prior to the "gone too soon" KFC outlet, the Cinema Chatham shut down; again, without warning. When I lived in St. Louis in one of the roughest areas of the city, I frequented a Popeye's Chicken franchise each Monday because of a BOGO sale on an 8-piece meal. I visited like clockwork for over a year. One day I went to the outlet, and it was closed for business. No signs, no nothing. Just no cars or activity. I went back the following two Mondays and finally figured out that the owner just tucked tail and run. No warning. I suspect he took all his restaurant gear out the back door and left the store for the vagrants, drug dealers and prostitutes in the area. Going to that Popeye's franchise took either guts or desperation. As for the Chicago KFC situation, Sixth Ward Alderman William Hall said, "A closed business is not only a sore eye, but it's a gateway for violence because when you see abandonment, it looks as if there is no love, no hope in the community." "There was no communication," he added. "I saw what the residents saw, disappointed just the same way they are." Why are businesses closing in Black neighborhoods? A commenter on the Fox 32 story conveyed, "What's killing business on the south side of Chicago is no one feels safe anymore. I frequented both the 35th and 75th Street locations, and the food was great. But I'd never go after dark. There's a whole different feel to those streets when the sun goes down." I can attest to this personally using my own kids. One of our sons wanted to take his girlfriend to Lee's Chicken in the same area as the Popeye's. It was getting dark, so we warned against it. But he felt like it would be ok, so they walked to the restaurant. About 15 minutes later my wife got a call from him. I didn't even wait to hear the discussion, and instead jumped in my car making the 3-minute drive in less than a minute. When I got to the store, my son and his girlfriend were sitting in a booth and a Black man was menacing them. They saw men, and I calmly said to them, "Go to the car." I then looked at the man in a way that he hadn't been looked at in a while, and his eyes veered to the ground like a good beta male". Point made. I wasn't there to play. In the video below, this Black woman explains the mass vanishings of retail stores in her neighborhood in Oakland. https://twitter.com/stillgray/status/1754548421623787936 Tim Young documents other business closings in Oakland. But I remind you, these business closures are happening all over the country: https://twitter.com/TimRunsHisMouth/status/1754501414657597785 If I have any sympathy, it's for the business owners. They tried. [SEGMENT 1-4] KFC closings in Chicago 2 Everything closes down Starbucks closed down No jobs, no hope. Where are the community leaders? Why aren't they getting together to garner community support. Are they having these troubles in non-black dominated neighborhoods? They bought into the idea of serving an "underserved" community, and they stepped up only to get shot down. Promises by politicians, even inducements. Poverty Zones or other cute names for these communities that really means "high crime", thus the likelihood of failure. What amount of money can the government give you, if you are robbed repeatedly and the perpetrators are never arrested. How long would any business last. But there can be humor in tragedy. https://twitter.com/thatbruh420/status/1760102474684244161 Some folks, like Twitter/X user Jay here, had fun with the bad news. "I went to that same KFC," he posted. "When I got my order I walked out and I was chased by these two guys with red hats and they were yelling 'This is MAGA country' in a Jamaican accent… no wonder why it's shut down."

One of the most groundbreaking shows in the last 20 years that did a masterful job of telling stories of race and class was Aaron McGruder's Boondocks from 2005. The show opens with one of it's main characters, Huey Freeman, a young Black 10 year old boy who's just been transplanted from his South Side Chicago home to live with his 8 year old brother with their grandfather in the fictional suburban town of Woodcrest. Huey is telling a captive older rich white audience that “Jesus was black, Ronald Reagan is the devil, and the government is lying about 9/11” the white audience erupts into chaotic violence from the words spoken by Huey Freeman. These words, to Huey, are the truth, and white people are never to hear the truth because according to his grandfather, “you never tell white people the truth”. The scene is just a dream, but later in the episode Huey gets a chance to utter the words again, hoping they will be the spark to start the revolution, but he is shocked to find that nothing happens. The captive audience of rich white people simply clap. They patronizingly compliment him on how well he speaks and don't seem to fear his condemnation of the system, or his utterance of “truth”.  About TIR Thank you for supporting the show!

This is part 1 of 2Gakirah Barnes was a female gang shooter who became infamous for using Twitter to taunt and perpetuate gang violence around South Side Chicago. In 2014, a rapper called King Von gunned down the 17-year-old. Barnes's kill count is unknown, but many believe she was responsible for 17 murders.
