February may almost be over, but there's still plenty of time to highlight dope media touched in some way by people of color for Black History Month! This episode, Barry and Christian spend quite a bit of time sharing their personal favorite creators of color across all media (books, comics, tv, movies, music, digital, etc) and why their presence is significant. But first, they spend a bit of time speaking on the Grammys and highlighting Cardi B and Childish Gambino's accomplishments with their awards. - Childish Gambino: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VYOjWnS4cMY - Marques Brownlee: https://www.youtube.com/user/marquesbrownlee - Nnedi Okorafor: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nnedi_Okorafor - Marsai Martin: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marsai_Martin - Cree Summer: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cree_Summer - Jordan Peele: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jordan_Peele - Issa Rae: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Issa_Rae - Dwayne McDuffie: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dwayne_McDuffie - Lena Waithe: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lena_Waithe - ToonrificTariq: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uOwhBkoNK0g Shoutout to Jon Ellison and Kiara King on their submissions and perspective on some of their favorite black creators!
