Description

 Today is like therapy cause sometimes in the middle of a pandemic with so much happening- you’re just not okay. With returning guest co-host Samantha Nzessi, we talk “why are we trying to confirm Amy Comey Beheret and her questionable originalist self when folks still waiting for more stimulus checks?" Beware of the Republicans latest tactic to steal the election. We'll let you know why everyone needs a hype sign language person like Governor Gretchen Whitmer- don't fuck with her!  On the pop culture front, Regina King’s latest project is about to Slay, and Coming 2 America might be coming to you on Amazon, and why that's a bummer, and why the new Furiosa casting has us furious with ageism in Hollywood. In the main Korner's we are celebrating Indigenous People’s day highlighting the cultural traditions that First Nation’s people were doing that had been banned for centuries, that could have helped the fires in California, had Westerners leave them be, plus 5 things you can do to celebrate and support Indigenous folks!  Samantha breaks down the case of Megan The Stallion’s treatment after she was shot by ex boyfriend Tory Lenz and how this is an example of Misogynoir, it's historical footprint in hip hop, and 5 ways you can stop it. Plus- our proposal for reparations which may include a white butler for all.Guest Co Host Samantha Nzessi- IG & Twitter: @samanthal_nSamantha (she/her) is about equity of all kinds. Racial, gender, class, you name it. She is co-host and producer of MASKulinity podcast, which is dedicated to unlearning patriarchy from the masculine side of the spectrum. Like Issa Rae, she’s rooting for everybody Black. Unless you’re a misogynist! Then she’s rooting for you to be held accountable for your fuckery.LINKS:Ugh , Amy Comey Barretthttps://www.theroot.com/the-why-are-we-doing-this-and-not-passing-a-stimulus-p-1845350212https://www.themarysue.com/amy-coney-barrett-constitution/Regina King: Slay:  https://www.comingsoon.net/tv/news/1151761-slay-regina-king-producing-supernatural-drama-in-development-at-the-cwComing 2 America: https://www.comingsoon.net/movies/news/1151719-amazon-in-final-negotiations-to-acquire-coming-2-americaRepublicans have been trying to steal ballots: https://www.themarysue.com/ca-gop-doing-some-election-crimes/Anya Taylor Joy as a young Fruiosa : https://www.themarysue.com/anya-taylor-joy-furiosa-prequel/Indigenous People’s Celebrationhttps://www.npr.org/2020/08/24/899422710/to-manage-wildfire-california-looks-to-what-tribes-have-known-all-alonghttps://www.themarysue.com/five-amazing-creators-and-advocates-to-support-on-indigenous-peoples-day/https://www.smithsonianmag.com/blogs/national-museum-american-indian/2020/10/07/indigenous-peoples-day-2020/https://www.bustle.com/life/5-ways-to-celebrate-indigenous-peoples-day-2797591https://www.cnn.com/2020/10/12/us/indigenous-peoples-day-2020-states-trnd/index.htmlMegan Thee Stallion + misogynoir in hip hophttps://www.nytimes.com/2020/10/13/opinion/megan-thee-stallion-black-women.html?action=click&module=Opinion&pgtype=Homepagehttps://www.npr.org/2020/10/08/921902926/rapper-tory-lanez-charged-in-megan-thee-stallion-shootinghttps://www.harpersbazaar.com/culture/art-books-music/a33471010/megan-thee-stallion-shooting-misogynoir/https://www.vibe.com/2019/04/dee-barnes-silent-on-dr-dre-sexual-assault-questionhttps://www.irishexaminer.com/lifestyle/arid-30170006.htmlhttps://www.google.com/amp/s/level.medium.com/amp/p/63311c8fa0dbCONTACT USTwitter: @minoritykornerEmail: minoritykorner@gmail.comIG: @minoritykornerJames Arthur M: TW: @JamesArthur_M, IG: @JamesArthurM
