A Wrinkle at the Box Office? Jessica Jones S2; Bruno Appropriates? TheGrind @6pm - a podcast by dburt aka Afronerd

Hundalasiliah with a Wakandan "pound" and arms crossing maneuver thrown in to our listeners for good measure!  Check out the latest episode of Afronerd Radio'sGrindhouse podcast airing this Sunday at 6pm eastern.  Join your favorite podcast Golden Age "Liberty Legion" crew (Claire Lanay, Daryll B, Capt. Kirk, Dburt) as they highlight this week's more popular goings ons in pop/pulp culture: Dburt took one for the team and checked out Ava Duvernay's A Wrinkle in Time and he gives his impressions; Black Panther pounced on China (after much speculation and trepidation) and now the film has passed the 1B box office mark; the second season of Netflix' Jessica Jones premieres to mixed reviews; pop star Bruno Mars gets accused of cultural appropriation on twitter (no condemnation of the myriad of lame artists in general?);  The Mary Sue posits that the upcoming Ready Player One is practicing tokenization at the expense of marginalized groups; actor, Michael B. Jordan has announced that his production company will henceforth utilize inclusion riders emphasizing diversity on prospective projects but Netflix? Not so much.; noted (and divisive among comic fans) comic creator, Rob Liefeld cuts a deal with Netflix for his Extreme Universe;  highlights from Austin's SXSW tech/entertainment festival (incl, Westworld'sShogun World panel);  And lastly, we never did discuss the idea of Tom Cruise reciting the Green Lantern oath....is it possible? And would audiences support a Green Lantern/Hall Jordan film versus an ensemble Corps project? Call in LIVE at 646-915-9620.
