We All Gone Die
We are traumatized yet again by police murder. This time Andrew Brown Jr. And Mario Gonzalez. The police are insane—America just got finished convicting one of their guys and they’re still murdering us with impunity. That plus why are Black people so anti-vax? We’re the most likely to get Covid and the least likely to take the vaccine. Make it make sense please. I hate it here. Democracyish.

Chauvin Is Guilty
Chauvin is guilty. And that’s cathartic. But Ma’Khia is dead. And it starts again. We talk with Elie Mystal through the pain of being Black in this moment, the key moments in the trial, the question of whether or not Kim Potter will go to prison for murdering Daunte Wright, and what can we do for self-care in this very traumatic moment for Black people.

Daunte Wright
We interrupt our conversation about the trial of a white cop who murdered a Black person to bring you a new story about a white cop who murdered a Black person. Daunte Wright is dead. And we’re heartbroken. We talk about Daunte, Chauvin, Nazario, America, and how to get some self-care in a traumatizing moment like this.

Is Derek Chauvin Goin Down?
The Derek Chauvin trial is triggering but we can’t turn away. Toure is confident that he will be convicted—the Chief of Minneapolis Police testified against him.

America On Trial
We’re talking about the Derek Chauvin murder trial even though it’s really triggering and traumatizing to relive him executing George Floyd in the street while people stood there and told him, you’re killing him. It’s hard to watch but we can’t turn away. We’re already dead inside. Democracryish.

Stop White Violence
White male violence is probably the greatest threat to America right now. Not Russia. Not ISIS. White mass shooters. White insurrectionists. White police who are repressing BLM rallied. White cops kneeling on our necks.

Burn It All Down
When white people are mass murderers the police talk about “he was having a bad day.” Why are we talking about his emotions? Why are we invoking empathy for a mass murderer? And why is mass murder so easily accepted by America now? And should we as Black people move to the South en masse to create a voting bloc that will dominate Southern states and send lots of Black people to the Senate?

Oprah Is The Queen
Oprah reigns supreme. Meghan Markle is dignity personnified but also an example of the racism that upper class Black folks face. We luxuriate in Oprah and Meghan and then move on to racism against Asian-Americans, $15 minimum wage, and thoughts on what will happen in the Derek Chauvin trial. DO NOT CALL IT THE GEORGE FLOYD TRIAL. How could Chauvin get off? Um, have you been watching the show called America these past few centuries???

Get the Vaccine!
We are under attack. From people who refuse to take the vaccine. Don’t you want to go out again? Don’t you want this to end? And yet Wendy Williams is leading people to not trust the science. We hate it here. Also: white supremacist domestic violence is on the rise. So if we’re not killed by Covid we could be killed by wypipo??? We hate it here.

MAGA poop on the walls
The 1/6 terrorists smeared poop on the walls of the Capitol. They’re nasty and disgusting animals, as well as mentally lost people. It’s fun to dunk on them but remember: they have the right to vote and they have guns and some of them are police officers. We hate it here.
