This week Mike and Jack examine why Netflix is depositing $100 million dollars into Black banks; Lin-Manuel Miranda's revered Broadway musical 'Hamilton' has been released on Disney+ and is receiving backlash from historians for glorifying slave-owners. Has art become more significant than historical facts? And in 1983, artist David Bowie challenged MTV VJ Mark Goodman on why MTV didn't play Black music in primetime. Chuck Creekmur, co-founder and co-CEO of AllHipHop.com joins the show to explain how racism still oppresses black and brown music in the music industry today.References:David Bowie Criticizes MTV for Not Playing Videos by Black Artistshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XZGiVzIr8Qg"The Color of Money: Black Banks and the Racial Wealth Gap" by Mehrsa Baradaranhttps://www.hup.harvard.edu/catalog.php?isbn=9780674237476Correcting ‘Hamilton’ (Historian Annette Gordon-Reed Interviewed)https://news.harvard.edu/gazette/story/2016/10/correcting-hamilton/"What Is Owed" by Nikole Hannah-Joneshttps://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/06/24/magazine/reparations-slavery.htmlMarianne Williamson Speech on Reparationshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vmu9hXtnbvo&feature=emb_title
