  • 'The American Society of Magical Negroes' Dives Deep Into Covert Racism

    Focus Features has released the satirical comedy, The American Society of Magical Negroes, this past weekend. The film follows Aren, portrayed by Justice Smith, a young man navigating the intricacies of modern life. His world is turned upside down when he is recruited into a clandestine society with a peculiar mission: to make white people's lives easier. The mysterious organization, aptly named The American Society of Magical Negroes, unveils a hidden layer of society where magical abilities are harnessed for a cause both absurd and bold: Black people dedicating their lives to making white people's lives easier. The studio had an uphill battle to find an audience for the film, which stars David Alan Grier, An-Li Bogan, Drew Tarver, Michaela Watkins, Rupert Friend, Aisha Hinds, and Nicole Byer. From the title to the plot and trailer reveal, the backlash was quick. During a conversation while promoting the film, Smith and Kobi Libii, writer and director of the film, spoke about understanding the backlash. "We've got natural leaders who dropped the ball a lot as an industry," Smith says about the relationship between Hollywood and the Black community. "A raised eyebrow is very understanding and other aspects of that reaction." Smith also explains that the film is "satire" and that presents its own set of challenges with finding an audience and meeting expectations of having a "Black Hogwarts." "They're typically using those superpowers for a fight bigger than systemic racism," Smith says about stories showing Black people with elevated superpowers. But Libii was intentional about the story he wanted to tell. "As a culture. I think we're pretty good at telling stories about overt racism, slavery stories, legal discrimination because they're visual. But the more common microaggressions are incredibly hard to pin down," Libii shares. "Kinda one of the things I hope to do with this story of trying to make that almost intangible, invisible quality of racism, tangible and visible." As Cord Jefferson said during a press conference after winning the Oscar for American Fiction, "[A] story with Black characters that's going to appeal to a lot of people doesn't need to take place on a plantation. Doesn't need to take place in the projects. Doesn't need to have drug dealers in it. Doesn't need to have gang members in it." Yes, The American Society of Magical Negroes is not about Black people fighting "evil" with magic or a Black man using magic to fall in love with a non-Black woman. But at the core of the film, Libbi is providing another perspective of a life that many Black people experience every day: living in a world where their mere presence gives white people discomfort. That's the story and the message he is trying to shed light on. Despite opening with a little over $1 million at the Box office and a rotten tomato score of 30%, Smith remains hopeful. "I believe the film will be extremely nourishing for the Black community...But it requires being open to a different kind of film that is nourishing differently than other films are. I'm just hopeful that the community will give it a chance and see it because I believe once they do, they'll find it nourishing in different ways than the movie many were hoping for." The American Society of Magical Negroes is now playing in theaters. Check it out and let us know what you think.

  • What's Going On In Haiti?

    Over the decades, Haiti has been struggling due to a myriad of developments. One of which is powerful nations stealing and digging up its resources when the lights aren’t being used, which causes earthquakes and an abundance of disarray, according to folks that used to live in Haiti. All of that has built up to this situation: The country is now facing “an increasingly dire humanitarian emergency,” and the president is stranded in Puerto Rico, while the people starve and live in fear of rampant violence, according to NBC News. Additionally, Haiti’s prime minister, Ariel Henry, has agreed to resign when a transitional government is “brokered by other Caribbean nations and parties, including the U.S.” Still, the idea of a “transitional government brokered not by Haitians but by outsiders is one of the main reasons Haiti, a nation of 11 million, is on the brink” according to humanitarian workers and residents who have wanted for Haitian-led solutions. “What we’re seeing in Haiti has been building since the 2010 earthquake,” said Greg Beckett, an associate professor of anthropology at Western University in Canada. But what is happening in Haiti and why? Following democratically elected President Jovenel Moise being assassinated in 2021, Henry, who was prime minister under Moise, assumed power, and he had the support of several nations. And when Haiti failed to hold elections several times – Henry said it was due to logistical problems or violence – protests against him started to happen. So, it was announced that elections would be postponed once more, to 2025, but armed groups were already active in Por-au-Prince, which is the capital, dialing up violence. Even before Moise’s assassination, these armed groups were in existence alongside politicians who used them to do their bidding, which was anything from intimidating the opposition to collecting votes. But the dwindling of the country’s elected officials is a real thing, and this has resulted in rebel forces engaging in excessively violent acts, taking control of at least 80% of the capital, according to a United Nations estimate. According to Politico, the Biden administration sent top Republicans in Congress its plan for helping Haiti. Last year, the U.S. pledged $300 million to the United Nations multinational mission, which would involve 1,000 Kenyan police officers deploying to Haiti to try and quell the chaos caused by armed groups.

  • Meet Richard And Mengistu Koile: The Brothers Behind Philadelphia's First Black-owned Brewery

    The City of Brotherly Love is continuing to live up to its name. Some brothers from Philly have collaborated and have started a new brewery company, according to NBC News. The pair of brothers, Richard and Mengistu Koiler, have added a historic brewery location to Philly known as Two Locals Brewing Co. It is a 6,000-square-foot brewpub right in the heart of the city’s expanding University City section, which is West Philadelphia. It is Pennsylvania’s first known Black-owned craft brewery. “It just meant a lot to us to be here,” Mengistu said. “This is where we grew up. The brewery Two Locals was the culmination of a decade’s long arduous work. How did this all start? Well, Mengistu, 43, and Richard, 33, started a backyard home brewery back in 2016. Mengistu spent several years on Wall Street in finance and Richard worked in accounting. But their love of stouts, lagers and ales turned from hobby-level to the notion of business. “Full days, like 8 to 1 in the afternoon, you know, we’d be brewing beer,” Mengistu said. “Just gave away a lot of free beer, which helped, you know.” Now in 2024 with years of experience in the business of brewery, Richard said he’s “always emotional,” and he is constantly fighting back tears while giving daily tours of the brewery. What’s masterful about this situation is that according to the National Black Brewers Association, just 1% of craft breweries in the U.S. are Black-owned. Frequenting the same white spaces with white counterparts in predominantly white schools is one thing. But working in business with distributors and contractors in a majority white space is a whole new ballgame, according to the brothers. Still, by 2018, the bros built a limited liability company but still needed cash to get it up and running, so they turned to crowdfunding. But then the pandemic happened in 2020. “We kind of looked at each other like, all right, well, this isn’t going to work,” Mengistu said. “You know, it’s a pandemic, and we’re here, we are asking people to donate.” Just months later in 2020, the brothers joined with other participating breweries across the nation to raise funds for social justice organizations amid the protests that started following the deaths of George Floyd in Minneapolis and Walter Wallace Jr. in Philadelphia. “Brewing beer, Mengistu said, is “about community, but you know, you also find movements that are near and dear to your heart.”

  • Behind the TikTok Ban: Understanding the House's Bill and Its Implications

    Tik Tok may be no more. The House on Wednesday passed a bill that could lead to the entire nation banishing the popular video app, TikTok, but only if its China-based owner doesn’t sell its stake. Lawmakers are acting on concerns that the company’s current ownership structure is a national security threat, according to the Associated Press. But it’s a whole process. The bill, which was passed by a vote of 352-65, will now go to the Senate, where the prospects remain unclear. Where is TikTok from? Well, the application has more than 170 million American users, and it is a “wholly-owned subsidiary of the Chinese technology firm, ByteDance Ltd." United States lawmakers contend that ByteDance demands access to the data of the consumers of TikTok at whatever timetable it wants. However, the concern is derived from a group of Chinese national security laws that “compel organizations to assist with intelligence gathering.” “We have given TikTok a clear choice,” said Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers, R-Wash. “Separate from your parent company ByteDance, which is beholden to the CCP (the Chinese Communist Party), and remain operational in the United States, or side with the CCP and face the consequences. The choice is TikTok’s.” But the House passage of the bill is just the first step. The Senate would also need to pass the measure for it to be the actual law, and lawmakers in that section said they would review it thoroughly. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said he would have to consult with committee chairs to determine the bill’s path. President Joe Biden said if Congress passes the bill, he will indeed sign it. The House vote is the latest example of heightened tensions between China and the U.S. Targeting TikTok has lawmakers tackling what they deem a grave threat to America’s national security. Still, TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew on Wednesday said the company invested to keep user data safe, and the TikTok platform is free of outside manipulation. If the bill is passed, he said it would give even more power to a handful of other social companies. Photo Credit: DepositPhotos.com

  • Five Black Men Come Together To Develop New High-rise On The South Side Of Chicago

    One Black man took a first responder job and turned it into the lifestyle of a lifetime. Jemal King of Chicago took his police officer job and turned it into a millionaire lifestyle. King has become a real estate developer and is now building a new high-rise on the South Side of Chicago, according to ABC Chicago. “I want to be a man kids can really, you know, look up to and say like, ‘man, this guy did it, why can’t I?” King asked. King originally had dreams of going into the NFL, but that didn’t work out, so he went into law enforcement, following in his parents' footsteps. “I said to myself that just because I didn’t make it to the NFL did not mean that the vision and the dream I had, taking care of my family, that didn’t have to stop,” King said. When doing his officer duties, he invested in real estate, all while keeping his 9-to-5. This is why he became known as the 9-to-5 millionaire. He’s also part of a group of five Black men called “Model of Transformation.” “So, you got Mark Beaufort, you got Damen Stuart, you got Gerald Williams and you got Johnny Mullins, and the four of the five of us all have a special gift, that we have a special talent,” King said. Additionally, the group is behind the development of a $40 million high-rise called, “The Xchange” at 72nd Street and Exchange Avenue in the South Shore neighborhood. “It’s gonna be 17 stories. It’s gonna overlook Lake Michigan. It’s going to be 120 luxury units, going to have anywhere from four to eight commercial spaces, which is going to house some of the finest restaurants,” King said. King said the building will have a black and gold color scheme, which reflects Black American culture. He said he hopes the project will be a beacon of growth in the Chicago community. “We’re gonna keep rent competitive to what’s already there in the area, you know, especially from the Hyde Park area, South Shore area. We’re not trying to rent gouge. We want this development to be for the community,” King said.

  • Netflix Will Stream Mike Tyson Vs. Jake Paul Fight

    Iron Mike Tyson is set to fight again. This time, he will fight Internet star Jake Paul – the brother of Internet start Logan Paul – on July 20 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. The fight will also air on Netflix. What’s ironic is Paul rose to prominence in an undercard fight against former NBA player Nate Robinson before Tyson’s exhibition boxing match against former sensational fighter Roy Jones Jr. back in 2020. Now, they will square off against each other, according to ESPN. The event will be Netflix’s first combat sport live-action event and third live sporting event overall. According to MVP cofounder Kakisa Bidarian, Paul’s company inked a deal with Netflix for a boxing card last November 1. “Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson is a once-in-a-lifetime dream matchup and I anticipate it will be the most-watched boxing event in modern boxing history,” Bidarian said in a statement. Right now, it is unclear what the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation, an entity that sanctions and regulates combat sports in the state, will do when it comes to the approach on how this fight will be categorized, as the fight will be either a pro fight or an exhibition. Tyson is the most ferocious and decorated boxer of our lifetime thanks to a pro record of 50-6, according to economictimes.com, winning the heavyweight championship in 1987. But he will be 58 at the time of the fight in July, while Paul will be just 27. Still, Tyson was in good shape when he fought Jones, which ended up being a draw on Nov. 28, 2020. And Tyson looks good on social media as well. Still, the fiercest puncher of all time hasn’t had a professional fight since 2005. “(Paul has) grown significantly as a boxer over the years, so it will be a lot of fun to see what the will and ambition of a ‘kid’ can do with the experience and aptitude of a GOAT,” Tyson said in a statement. “It’s a full-circle moment that will be beyond thrilling to watch, as I started him on his boxing journey on the undercard of my fight with Roy Jones, and now I plan to finish him.” Paul, though, is 9-1 with six KOs, beating the likes of UFC stars Nate Diaz, Anderson Silva and Tyron Woodley since transitioning from being a YouTube star a few years back.

  • Real Lives, Real Oscars: Actors Honored For Portraying Black Male Icons

    After various awards shows this season, from the Golden Globes to the Screen Actors Guild Awards, we have seen Black actors whom we've championed for years finally receive their first nominations at these major awards shows, including Jeffrey Wright, Sterling K. Brown and Colman Domingo. As the Hollywood awards season comes to a close with this year's Academy Awards, in which the gentlemen above are all nominees, let's look at some previous Black Oscar winners, five of whom won for their portrayals of real-life icons. Will Smith received his first Oscar nomination for his portrayal of Muhammed Ali in the biopic Ali (2001), followed by a second nomination for playing Chris Gardner in The Pursuit of Happyness (2006). While Smith lost both times, his third nomination landed him a win for his performance as Richard Williams, father of Venus and Serena Williams, in the film King Richard (2021). Jamie Foxx made history in 2005 when he received two Oscar nominations during the same year in the categories of Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor for his roles as the late music legend Ray Charles in Ray (2004) and as a cab driver in Collateral (2004). Foxx won the Oscar for Best Actor in a Leading Role for Ray at the 2005 ceremony. Forest Whitaker won an Oscar with his first and only nomination for his leading role as the late Ugandan dictator Idi Amin in The Last King of Scotland (2006) during the 2007 awards show. Daniel Kaluuya also won an Oscar for his first nomination, in which he was nominated for Best Supporting Actor for his portrayal of Black Panther leader Fred Hampton in Judas and The Black Messiah (2021). He was up against his fellow co-star LaKeith Stanfield in the same category. Mahershala Ali won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for his role as real-life jazz pianist Dr. Don Shirley in Green Book (2018). He had previously won his first Academy Award in 2017 for his role in Moonlight. Sidney Poitier broke ground by becoming the first Black actor to win an Oscar, clinching the Best Actor in a Leading Role award in 1964 for his performance in Lilies of the Field (1963). Poitier had previously faced a loss when he was initially nominated for The Defiant Ones (1958). Following his retirement from acting, he was honored with the Academy Honorary Award for lifetime achievement. Finally, no list of Black Oscar winners would be complete without mentioning Denzel Washington. Washington has received ten nominations and has been nominated in every decade since the 1980s. He won the Best Actor award for Training Day (2001) and Best Supporting Actor for Glory (1989). However, Washington has never won an Oscar for his portrayal of real-life icons such as Malcolm X or boxer Rubin Carter. Photo Credit: DepositPhotos.com

  • What Celebrities Use Irish Sea Moss And Why?

    Celeb-Endorsed Wellness: Sea Moss and the Celebrity Connection Public figures are constantly scrutinized for their health and beauty routines. As such, when a celebrity endorses a product, it's often because it offers tangible benefits that align with their stringent health and beauty standards. With its rich nutritional profile and versatility, Irish sea moss has become a staple in the wellness routines of many celebrities, from actors to athletes. If you are inspired to follow celebs in their self-care routines, Irish moss is a great step. The key secret of the Irish Sea Moss spotlight The hype around Irish sea moss is owed to its dense nutrient-rich profile, offering over 90 essential minerals and nutrients our bodies need daily. Its versatility, highlighted in numerous science-backed sea moss gel reviews, makes it a top choice for those seeking to boost their nutritional intake with minimal effort and significantly improve health. At the very least, in just two tablespoons of sea moss gel, the following compounds can be found (and many more): Magnesium Iron Calcium Zinc Copper Potassium Carrageenan B-vitamins Fatty acids Some of the essential amino acids Some of the non-essential amino acids Regular intake of sea moss has been shown to improve immune response, metabolism, gut microflora, respiratory health, and even help to prevent autoimmune diseases. What do stars say about their sea moss routine? Celebrities have openly shared their appreciation for sea moss, highlighting its health benefits and how they incorporate it into their diets. For instance, Kim Kardashian has openly shared her love for sea moss smoothies, part of her plant-based diet, highlighting its nutrient-packed benefits. "One of the best things I can have for breakfast to start my day is a sea moss smoothie," Kardashian revealed, emphasizing the delicious taste and energy boost it provides​​. Similarly, Cardi B, the vibrant singer and rapper, turns to sea moss capsules for her nutritional needs. She chooses this seaweed for its energy-boosting properties despite not being a fan of its natural flavor. Angela Yee and Styles P have also shared their experiences with sea moss, spreading the fame of sea moss among their fans. How does sea moss help celebrities shine bright every day? Why do celebrities, with access to an array of health products and supplements, gravitate toward sea moss? This section reveals specific reasons celebrities incorporate sea moss into their wellness routines, highlighting the superfood's role in enabling them to meet the demands of their lifestyles while maintaining their health and vitality. Nutrient-rich supplement One of the main attractions of sea moss for celebrities is its dense concentration of essential vitamins and minerals. Sea moss offers an easy solution, providing nearly all the minerals needed by the human body in one go. The comprehensive nutrient profile supports not just physical health but also mental well-being, aiding in stress management and cognitive function. Immunity reinforcement Poor immunity doesn’t only open your body wide to pathogens. It results in irritation, sluggishness, weak stomach, sleep issues, and more. Sea moss is very famous for its ability to bolster the immune system, thanks to its vitamin C and antioxidant content — key compounds that help fight off infections and reduce susceptibility to viruses. Additionally, the anti-inflammatory properties — ensured by omega fatty acids found in the content of sea moss — play a role in preventing and easing chronic inflammation. Skin-health support Skin is a serious deal for celebrities — pimples and wrinkles appear to be fierce enemies of models and actors. In this case, sea moss is a natural alternative to artificial skin-care products, supplements, and other means that are supposed to help your skin remain young and shiny. The sulfur and antioxidant content of sea moss have antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. Some other compounds of sea moss may help boost collagen produced by your skin, resulting in its elasticity, softness, and smoothness. Gut health support Struggling with gut health is not an option for celebs (nor is it good for your health!). However, stress and tight schedules are known to negatively affect gut microflora. Gut health is tightly linked to energy, mood, skin health, and other vital health aspects. So what does sea moss do? The high fiber content in the alga is extremely beneficial for digestive health, promoting regular bowel movements and reducing bloating. The prebiotic effect of sea moss encourages a healthy gut microbiome, which is essential for overall health, immunity, and even mood regulation. What’s more, sea moss is a good natural source of magnesium, vitamin C, and calcium, essential for strong immunity within the guts. Effective weight management Maintaining a specific physique is often a requirement for models and celebrities. And if you are personally on a weight loss journey or simply looking to get in shape, sea moss might become your ally. This seaweed aids in this aspect by promoting feelings of fullness, reducing appetite, and providing a low-calorie nutrient boost. Sea moss might also help improve metabolism and boost testosterone production — both essential factors for healthy weight maintenance. How to incorporate sea moss into your nutrition? If you are looking to start your sea moss journey with high-quality products that contain no sugar or artificial additives, True Sea Moss offers a range of affordable products, including gel, gummies, and pills. Now, here are three seamless ways to enjoy the benefits of sea moss by seamlessly incorporating it into your nutrition: Eat just spoonful in the morning.
