Again, straight issues, no chaser!  Check out the latest installment of Afronerd Radio's Mid Week in Review (MWIR) podcast airing this Wednesday at 7pm ET.  Listen to the Afronerd Radio team discuss the following issues: it appears that a FOX affiliate analyzed young Black scholar, Michael Brown's 20 colleges' acceptance feat  differently than just about everyone else; did the latest Simpsons' episode fall short of addressing the racial stereotyping embodied in the Apu character in the wake of Hari Kondabolu's documentary, The Problem With Apu?;  Dburt waxes about the Devonte Hart ironic tragedy and how we REALLY have to listen to children and your instincts; more on The Root's failed attempt at journalism and if Black folk can't develop a legitimate news network, can we at least erect a Black "FOX" News?; motivational speaker, Tony Robbins gets into hot water trying to explain the price of victimization in the advent of the #metoo movement; some POC actually believe that respectability politics doesn't have a version that Whites have to abide by (ex: Facebook founder, Mark Zuckerberg gives up his famed hoodie for a business suit during his congressional hearing) ; more on Thanos measuring up as a true villain for the forthcoming Avengers: Infinity War blockbuster;  more on last week's Youtube mass shooting; And lastly, perhaps even more reason to pump the brakes on social media involvement-Facebook purportedly failed to address a fake Black Lives Matter page that was linked to a white man in Australia.  Call in LIVE at 646-915-9620.
