Episode 43: A Gumbo of Afrofuturism (Vann R. Newkirk II) (Encore)

It's an encore, which is French for "you better listen again, honey because it's delicious." We celebrate Blacker History Month with our caucacity correspondent Matt Bellassai, we talk all things Kanye with Jezebel's Julianne Escobedo Shepherd, and interview Vann R. Newkirk II of Seven Scribes and The Atlantic, who brings us to the afrofuture because the afro-present is pretty tough. 

Also! We have a live show coming up on February 10th, 2017! It's sold out, but you can get your friends together and watch live at
