Hey Hey Hey Hey, AFROnerdists!  Pull up a chair and check out a new installment from the Afronerd Radio machine via our Sunday The Grindhouse broadcast airing LIVE at 6 p.m. eastern on BTalk100. Today's topics are as follows: famed graphic novelist/writer, Pablo Dura returns to talk about the official U.S. release of his highly anticipated project, The Lincoln Brigade. Dura's Brigade entails the historical account of an integrated group of volunteers (incl. soldiers, technicians, medical personnel, pilots) from the U.S. who served in the Spanish Civil War; Dburt, per usual, will expound on some observations he's made during exchanges on Twitter concerning blackfishing versus blackfacing; the MCU's success versus the DCEU's; weaves versus Jordans.....maybe we should've talked to Timbaland and Swizz Beatz before their recent deal), a recent NYT's piece on Zack Snyder at the advent of the HBO Max release of his "SnyderCut" Justice League film opines about Marvel's popularity juxtaposed with DC's mythology; is Warner Media going to continue working with Snyder (sequels?) if this project wins based on subscriber count and viewership; Is it canonical or is the previous theatrical release?   

Sadly, another legend passes, iconic middleweight boxing giant, Marvelous Marvin Hagler dies at 66 and purportedly due to negative effects to the COVID-19 vaccine; a Georgetown Law professor is fired for her racially biased remarks on a Zoom call levied against Black students;  the ghost of Don Imus looms large with HS basketball announcer making racially disparaging remarks about kneeling Black female players;  And lastly, not quite reparations, but close....an L.A. County official has announced plans to possibly return beachfront property to the family of the original black owners who lost the property due to racial intimidation and government seizure.
