Rant, Rebuttal, Reconciliation: Wendy Williams Apologizes And Invites Roland Martin To Speak On HBCUs & The NAACP (Video)
July 15, 2016
Two media power-movers get together and ensure the ooh’s and ah’s are not the last thing we get out of the swirl of fiery commentary that came from Wendy Williams’ rant – then Roland’s rebuttal – on HBCUs (Historically Black Colleges & Universities) and National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. See all that build up after the jump. What’s most important though… is that they got together on Wendy’s couch, reached an accord, and ensured knowledge was shared! Good use of a powerful platform.
“News One Now” host Roland S. Martin sits down with Wendy to talk about her remarks about Historically Black Colleges and the NAACP. Then, Roland weighs in on race in America, police brutality and the Black Lives Matter movement. Plus, Roland weighs in on how to talk to our kids about these issues.

Activism: 23 Ways You Could Be Killed If You Are Black in America (Video)
July 15, 2016
Remember when Chris Rock did the comedic PSA “How To Not Get Your Ass Kicked By The Police” on his show years ago? No? We’re not surprised. With the passage of time AND all the police involved tragedy going on today, who can remember? And with all the unwarranted KILLING happening to us, it is really hard to laugh anymore. Crazy thing is… there seems to be NOTHING we can do to GUARANTEE living through a police encounter nowadays. Truth is, the time for folly is at an end. Hence the #WeAreHere Movement and the video above.
Beyoncé, Alicia Keys, Rihanna, Jennifer Hudson, Pink, Bono, and others explain why it’s time to take action to heal the long history of systemic racism in America. #23Ways
In collaboration with Alicia Key and the We Are Here Movement, with original reporting from Mic’s Jamilah King. Go to WeAreHereMovement.com to find out more.

Killer Mike Speaks On His Anger And Fears In The Wake Of More Police Killings Of Black People (Video)
July 11, 2016
Without fail, Killer Mike is ALWAYS speaking poingnantly with passion about matters affecting the people… his people. Sometimes it’s a wonder how he keeps answering the call to speak. Frustration we all feel, way before he and those of like mind began to #FeelTheBern
This is all truth. No slick talk and no backtracking. Notice how he does not have to couch his statements in the typical ‘all cops are not bad’ rhetoric, because he is out there with the police in his town – forging relationships, ensuring that they will feel/be compelled to protect & serve in his community. He touches on that. He has not abandoned talk on political movements we need to make either: VOTE out the folks who refuse to look out for the people in the community… VOTE THEM OUT! And he continues to bang the drum for a show of Black economic power: Want to move those in power, move your money away from them and toward folks you wish to empower.
None of this is new, but Killer Mike keeps speaking it. As frustrating as it must be. The truth is easy to repeat; because it’s not a ‘platform’ or something he has to ‘make up’ or remember. Watch Mike Render speak on his fears and frustrations with the two recent tragic losses of two Black Lives that did not Matter to cops who took them.

Comedy Central’s Larry Wilmore Speaks Out On The Killing Of Alton Sterling (Video)
July 8, 2016
Thank God for f#cking cell phones…Because we would never even hear about incidents like this otherwise. In fact, part of what makes people in the Black community so enraged about this is for years, we never had evidence for these things.
– Larry Wilmore
The Nightly Show with Larry Wilmore is supposed to be about comedic commentary… but a lot of what the host has had to cover is just plain old not funny. And it’s getting OLD. Larry speaks the feelings of us all in a tone like, ‘The vest just fell off…REALLY??’
Here’s the thing: People KNOW we have folks that NEED to be POLICED. But by and large, that should not include the UNJUSTIFIED KILLING we are see TOO OFTEN now. That’s MURDER, with a license to kill issued by the government. Before, folks could have dismissed all these as ‘anomalies’ or ‘things being blown out of proportion’… not anymore though. No more. People have the technology, even if cops on the scene ‘lose’ theirs all of a sudden at a crucial moment. We SEE you doing wrong, Mr. Officer. Cameras are ALWAYS on!
Watch.

Roseanne for President (Trailer)
July 4, 2016
Here I go… Running for President…
I’m the only serious comedian in this race…
I wasn’t shut up by networks… I won’t be shut up here…
– Roseanne Barr
Yep. Rosanne is making a run for the White House for real. She is seriously on the campaign trail, and why, even at first glance, is that any more ridiculous than a Trump 2016 run?
Follow comedy legend Roseanne Barr as she embarks on a wild, hilarious, and impassioned campaign for the highest office in the land. It’s 2012 and Barr, fed up with corporate influence in politics, takes matters into her own hands when she launches a third-party Presidential bid founded on grassroots activism. Hitting the campaign trail, the sarcastic, opinionated, and outspoken Barr makes for a candidate unlike any other as she brings her message to the people. Featuring appearances from Michael Moore, Sandra Bernhard, Rosie O’Donnell, and others close to Barr, Roseanne for President! is both a rousing David vs. Goliath tale and a revealing portrait of a cultural icon.
– IFC Films
Now, of course, Rosanne is a comedian first; so there will surely be ‘funny’ in here. But this trailer is teasing an underlying story that looks to make you do a second take. Watch.
(Due out July 1, 2016.)
