I wrote this piece 3 wks ago to reflect on and try to make sense of TV’s relationship to Blackness in the past, present, and future. So much has happened. My heart aches for Elijah McClain. Justice for Breonna. Tele-visionary Blackness via @publicbooks.

There’s just something so amazingly addictive about 90s mid-budget star-studded legal thrillers and/or domestic dramas. When A Time to Kill comes on cable, I have to immediately stop and watch it. I don’t make the rules!.

Hulu will be “fully integrated” into Disney+ in 2026. The standalone Hulu app will be shut down.

Activists shouldn’t be beholden to politicians on their messaging…say whatever you want! But the slogan was terrible and ineffective politics! Now that Mamdani is campaigning as a politician, for NYC mayor, he’s right to distance himself.
i don’t wanna freak out over this one thing, because i kinda think this was inevitable from Zohran, but i do think we owe it to ourselves as a movement to seriously reflect on how we got from 2020 to here.

I normally don’t do this, but MSNBC should really reconsider having two hours of #katytur every afternoon. She is actively not progressive (or even liberal really) and it absolutely shows in what her program decides to cover as well as everything she does and says as an anchor.
