Lotoya is an incredible young woman.

CNN been facing a backlash from its own staff over editorial policies they say have led to a regurgitation of Israeli propaganda and the censoring of Palestinian perspectives in the network’s coverage of the war in Gaza - anything to say about it Anderson?

Congrats to all the graduates from a proud J-School alumna!

Well done to my niece 👏 🎉❤

Many thanks for broadcasting the graduation ceremony! Signed: the very proud grand-parents of a MS-Journalism graduate. Greetings from France, across the pond

She speaks eloquently.

I have a story for you!

Pathetic

If this group was smart they will quit while there ahead but no they'd rather be in jail

The clowns says fake news if you're so fake why is everybody watching evening attorney general's watching and taking action it's hilarious how these clowns act

Why can't you just fix the problem and that makes the lawsuit go away

powerful documentary!

Ms. Oh, I hope you see this. Not only did “Illmatic” change my life, so did your review! I was fifteen, and took the issue with me on a family spring break road trip that March. My family all remembers me talking about the article and your review all the way from Ft. Worth to Big Bend National Park in west Texas. I still have the magazine!

This. Storie. Is. Fake

U. Suck.

Great podcast. I look forward to it everyday. It is very well made. Michael as well as the other hosts are great. Long live the Daily!

I appreciated the parts portraying family ties and dealing with the mortality of family, more than the main point, which seems to be a call to use "caste" instead of "racism" as a way to unite human oppression and suffering on a broader scale (not "just what black folks experience"). That part to me felt more a linguistics-based argument - semantics, if you will - and also politically driven. It had some great moments, for sure, but the main argument/theory is just okay. I have a few counter-arguments, but it's a comments section, not a dissertation, so....

So what

I hate jurnalsts

Journalsum sucks I hate the news

Respect ✊

These j school deans are going to ruin our country. They want to divide up all segments of our population and feed them news full of grievance. They feel no responsibility to assimilate to the mainstream American culture or valorize the founders and the men who made our country great

Where can I see the entire film?

They are more white and European looking than Sephardic Jews. Just going by appearance, they look intermediate between Ashkenazi and Sephardi Jews.

Where ever the Caste system exists it is not meant for the greater good. After watching this film I tend to see it more than I did before in a lot of institutions for dominance. Great film.❤

Mem, your bengali is also so Sweet 👌

Is Origin not an independent film?

I love the conversation but I keep hearing Ava mention that Aunjanue Ellis - Taylor wasn't a lead in a major motion picture. Does major mean that independent films don't count? What budget amount is being considered with this statement? Ellis - Taylor was the lead in "Cover" directed by Bill Duke around 2004-2005. I was there when it was released in Miami.

UItterly disgusting that your news agency is now going after disabled civil rights activists. Truly despicable.

I don't like Joe Biden, so now you can just F**K off too, Joe Scarborough 🤬 TRUMP 2024! ❤❤❤ 🇱🇷🇺🇸🇱🇷USA USA, USA

The undisputed 🐐 Nasir Jones.

Thank you for hosting me and main subject, the activist Terrance Roberts, for this discussion. For those who would like to screen the film, it is streaming on Prime and Apple Plus.

I had trekked with him in 2018 in Uttrakhand Himalayas, he was one of the great souls I came across.

Why is the host laughing?? Did she wach a comedy?😮

"Biggie's Ready to Die album came out several months after Illmatic, and Biggie was crowned king of New York in the popular culture of Hip Hop heads, Ready to Die unfairly over-shadowed Illmatic, which is truly a classic album. Though they were quite distinct artists, they innovated in analogous ways. Biggie merged language that was high and low, vernacular and vocabulary words, in a way that sounded natural. He did this with a sophisticated understanding of the patterns of black language. When a different or unusual word or phrase could be introduced while still maintaining the aesthetics of black language, he inserted it. NaS, in contrast, merged concepts that were high and low, vernacular and metaphysical, in a manner that was whole rather than pieced together, thus presenting a complex that is unusual in any music outside of jazz. What Biggie started to do with language in 1994, NaS had already begun to do with ideas on Illmatic. He carries us through the "Righteous steps" of the cosmic, oceanic, and literal dimensions of his person. He transcends." - Imany Perry (Born To Use Mics)

Ice Cube said to NaS on his 'The Bridge' podcast, "Back then we were doing our penmanship, then you came and put it in Cursive". Highest compliments from 1 of Hip-Hop Greats! Illmatic is like New Testament to Catholics. It is like BC & AD, before Illmatic and after Illmatic! Facts!

Dope interview! The single Nas had was “halftime” and it was on the zebra head soundtrack.

They aren’t even paying their own lawyers. 😂

Big thank you for your support to Ukraine.

A Good Human Being 🤍

Ive seen most of the leading movies this year, this is HANDS DOWN the best. Its a shame it has not had more views.

I had a whole semester with Fazil and we hung out a few times after class. We had some wholesome conversations. He was a great listener and a great friend. I will always remember him!! 🫂

True to his name, Fazil was a gracious, intellectual and one of the kindest souls I have ever met in life. It is truly heartbreaking to refer to him in the past tense, to look back and check our photos together, and recall our times at the Journalism school, IIMC. As described here by the many lives touched by Fazil, he was a calm, thoughtful, knowledgeable and incredibly focused individual who absolutely loved delving deep into areas of his interest. I remember when he was working for CNN-News18, his inputs helped me in reporting 2019 Indian parliamentary election. Fazil was my first 'Proper Delhi wala' friend who had a superb understanding of the city, its history and cultural. For those who may not know, his command over Hindi and Urdu was brilliant, especially the pronunciation part! Although we were not in regular touch after he moved to NY, busy with our lives, but were always comfortable just getting straight to the point, without the need for greetings. He used to share how proud his family was of his achievements. It was heartwarming to see him achieve what he truly believed in. His passing is a sudden shock, a harsh reality for all of us to come to terms with. Dear Faazeyyy, I feel fortunate to have known you and to have shared parts of our lives. You will forever be in our hearts. ♾❤ Rest in Peace! 🕊 Amen! CJS, Hechingerreport, and friends, It was a lovely memorial service🙏. (Rajat)

❤

Happened to know Fazil briefly when he was joining Indian Institute of Mass Communication, New Delhi. A boy full of possibilities. It was heartening to see him grow and grow well. You will be missed, Fazil. (- Rohin, New Delhi )

Martha Stewart is great, I always enjoy listening to her. However, the interviewer was not good :(
