BMX MASTER – BRAD SIMMS
I hadn’t watched a BMX racing event or an X Games in years. Honestly, while the sport embraces hip hop, alternative culture, I hadn’t seen to many dudes that look like me. That ended this week when I stepped onto an elliptical machine at the…
That Time Judge Mathis Reigned Hell On Wendy Williams

Netflix’s Black Mirror Season 5 Trailers

Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson, Racial Ambiguity and Transcendence
The non-controversy / controversy concerning The Rock’s racial identity played out in interesting fashion via Twitter and Instagram. It started with The Rock’s old job and his claim to fame WWE. Regardless what my brother and I thought when we were young, wrestling is scripted…
Netflix’s Love Death & Robots
