Asante Sana, Anwar Amal (Marion Barry)
So what’s the formula? (It’s why whites around the country never “got” him, but some journalists who covered him understood.)
It’s easy!
Feed the poor, house the elderly and give its youth summer jobs;
Make sure the Black middle class gets some corporate contracts, and
Make sure the white middle class gets the buildings they want.
Simple. Powerful. Thank you!
(I guess The Washington City Paper is happy to finally obit him, since it had been doing that for YEARS.)
A “Living Document” Of The 6th Pan-African Congress/Black Rock Discusison
This was easily one of the best programs Jared and Mark have done for WPFW.
Also: I found this conversation interesting, because it was so radically different in relation to my upbringing.
And “Arrow” Was Great, As Usual!
“Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD” Is Really Getting Better!
Here’s proof!
30th Anniversary of “Band Aid” For Ebola
Does this mean an updated “We Are The World” response? Huhdoesithuhdoesithuhdoesit???? LOL! 🙂 Does the 25th anniversary Haiti one (below) count against that happening?
Enjoyed Watching………….
…….this documentary.
Between this and “The Legend of Cool Disco Dan,” which aired a little over a week ago on WHUT-TV, I got a crash-course in D.C. history.
re: “Doctor Who” Season 8: I’m Not As Hard As The Writer Linked Below……
…….but I did feel this season felt a little more uneven than normal. It could be that it took me the whole season to adjust to the new Doctor. And boy, I said I wanted a darker Doctor, but instead I got a dark season. The good episodes were really good, Coleman showed she deserved to be the star of this season, and Season 8 was different, I’ll give it that. With more than 50 episodes into the “Nu Who,” the 50th anniversary, etc., maybe I’m suffering from “Doctor Who” fatigue.
I thought this was amusing!
NOVEMBER 18th UPDATE: This was funny, and GREAT!
And once again, “Children In Need” gets the sneak preview of the Christmas Special!
NOVEMBER 22nd UPDATE: Enjoyed this article.
DECEMBER 1st UPDATE: Okay, it was good to get these “mild spoilers.”
DECEMBER 13th UPDATE: Moffat answers his critics here.
The Legend Of Cool “Disco” Dan
Saw this on WHUT-TV last night! Growing up in the shadow of New York City, it was interesting to see the similarities in the contemporary histories of Black communities in NYC and DC.
“Life’s Essentials With Ruby Dee,” My Future Favorite Documentary Film
I’m very happy to say that this documentary, on one of the loves of my life, met its Kickstarter goal and has been released! I can’t wait to see it!
