Hot Topic Cancel Culture
Covers latest examples, Gone With the Wind, Cops, Live PD, Vanderpump Rules. YNB is a diehard MJackson defender. Sunny thinks it’s a long time coming, there should’ve always been a zero tolerance policy at least in the workplace but those who made the rules defined those boundaries. Meghan thinks it’s a slippery slope and it should be taken case by case. Taking down Confederate statues is different than coming for the cartoon Paw Patrol. Wants people to be able to have conversation even if it’s uncomfortable but not every situation has the same magnitude. Whoopi’s biggest issue is when people deny what their eyes are showing them. Talks mostly about police. Call it out and discuss how to fix it, but doesn’t want the baby thrown out with the bathwater. Has a mini rant about law enforcement and corrections officers.

Spike Lee talks about his film short 3 Brothers, Black Lives Matters protests, police reform, calls Tr/mp = Agent Orange lol [he reads ONTD, you know it], rally on Juneteenth in Tulsa Oklahoma, his perspective on HBO Max pulling GWTW - reminds a scene was spliced into Black KKKlansman. Cites other films (Birth of a Nation) that are racist, but feels they should be seen then discussed. Also talks about NFL statement and what is owed to Colin Kaepernick.
Spike is promoting his new film Da 5 Bloods streaming on Netflix, which examines the Vietnam War through the black experience. He’s 63 yrs old (!!) and talks about his memories starting from age 10, and the impetus of making this film. Explains some of the character developments in the film and why he and his co-writer wrote them that way. YNB is a diehard MJackson defender. Thinks Uncle Joe made a mistake when he talked to CTG and he won’t make that mistake ever again. Whoopi explains why she loves the film, talks about the actors cast in the film.

Are you relaxing your social distance rules. Sunny says No, her family has quarantined together so they’re still doing the same. YNB is a diehard MJackson defender. Meghan jokes about being willing to do anything to be able to return to normal, but is still irl ultra vigilant on following guidelines.

Viral video with Bri’Anna singing with her Uncle Jo Jo. She’s 12 yrs old. She explains there was so much bad happening and felt people needed something uplifting. Uncle Jo Jo is a vocal coach in VA and that’s how they connected on her singing. They have a new song-video coming out today (Friday), a rendition of Lean On Me. She was signed by Michael Bivins of New Edition. Bri’Anna talks about her new work. They were on America’s Got Talent and made it to the next round.
They sing a mashup of We Shall Overcome and Ain’t No Mountain High Enough.
Ontd happy Friday wishing you all a fun and healthy weekend. If you go out and protest, be safe!
