This week's @Slate #AWord podcast really hits home. We discuss the serious and underreported impact #COVID is having on the black family. Please take time to listen and share

Rampant greed is one of the reasons America is facing another #COVID and Variant wave despite having more than enough resources to do effective track & trace, quarantine and vaccination. But the push to re-open schools this fall is more about misplaced optimistism than greed
You've got @LSU refusing to require vaccination (but vaccinating an actual Lion mascot) and even at colleges that do require vaccination it's still dangerous to start classes full time again theadvocate.com/baton_rouge/ne…
I've had a few folks ask how to get access to my new podcast #Aword from @Slate, so I figured I'd re-post a few of our episodes and share some background. Feel free to tag and share with a friend. #Thread
The premise of #AWord @Slate is that race is real, dynamic and everything from white supremacy to #blackgirlmagic plays a role in pop culture, economics and politics. I don't talk down to listeners, we want you to enjoy and catch up

My discussion w/ @JIJennings abt #FalconAndWinterSoldier addresses some of the challenges and success in trying to make fun and realistic black super heroes in a large corporate environment like @DisneyStudios slate.com/podcasts/a-wor…
Could barely get through one episode of #ginnyandgeorgia . I swear sometimes you can look at the casting alone and realize nobody who looks like you or has any cultural knowledge about you was in the writers room for a show
OMG thank my spidey sense that told me to stop watching #ginnyandgeorgia after EP1. If I had invested in this show long enough to watch cringe worthy idiotic racially insulting scenes like this in later episodes I would've damn near canceled #Netflix
Who writes this stuff? And where were thier black and Asian friends and co-workers to tell them to stop?
