Description

Like a rash that we like Nnekay is back, ready to take us through Tangentown. So much has happened since she last visited, so we check in with her, and how she is dealing, handling, processing with all the civil unrest. We take issue with folks expressing “silent” solidarity. The definition of racism is finally being updated by Miriam Webster. Black Trans Lives Matter protests erupted around the country in mass, and we also try to remember how to celebrate good news with the recent Supreme Court ruling.  Nnekay has issues with Elmo. James saw the latest Spike Lee joint DA 5 Bloods on Netflix, which opens up a conversation about Black veterans, and the legacy of Spike Lee. In the main event we kick it up a notch in our actions you can take on police reform with 8 Can't Wait- 8 things you can make sure are in place in your city now to help end police violence on it’s citizens. LINKS!https://8cantwait.org/Miriam Webster Changing the DefinitionSpike Lee's Short Film : Three BrothersTony McDade- Black Trans Man killed in Police Custody CONTACT USTwitter: @minoritykornerEmail: minoritykorner@gmail.comIG: @minoritykornerJames Arthur M: TW: @JamesArthur_M, IG: @JamesArthurMNnekay FitzClrke: TW: @mizzfitzie, IG: @nnekayFacebook Minority Korner Kids Playground
