Trump’s Bloodbath… The First Step

1h 9m · Native Land Pod · 21 Mar 14:00

Welcome home!

This week, hosts Angela Rye, Andrew Gillum, and Tiffany Cross start the show with a look at Trump’s recent “bloodbath” debacle. Trump’s violent language on the campaign trail is nothing new, so how concerned should we be about political violence? What are the lasting effects of promoting violence as a political strategy? Is it “terrorism”??

Plus, you remember the First Step Act, that bipartisan criminal justice reform bill passed by the 115th Congress and signed into law by Donald Trump in 2018 that Republicans were patting themselves on the back for? You might have missed it in the mainstream news, but the ultra conservative Supreme Court just struck down a key part of the bill and the Justice who drafted the majority opinion MIGHT surprise you! The hosts dig into the SCOTUS ruling for this week’s deep dive.

Are you HIGH? Or feeling low because Mary Jane is still a Schedule I substance under the Controlled Substance ACT? Well, MVP Harris has some thoughts on it.

If you’re in Baltimore, support Marilyn Mosby by showing up to her rally. It’s at noon this Saturday March 23rd at the Druid Hill YMCA and this is just... the first step.

And since we know so many of you listen just for Tiffany’s sports analysis, she’ll be back to break down March Madness in this week’s Politics Are Everywhere. You can fill out your NCAA Women’s (and men’s) March Madness Bracket on the NCAA website.

Who Can Say the “N” Word? | MiniPod

This week hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum discuss the “N” word—who should say it and who should not?

With an eye towards history and pop culture, the hosts look at why some folks choose to use this word—and use it, and use it, and use it—while others think that not even Black folks should say it. Along with funny stories about their personal relationships with this powerful word, we’ll hear about how the NAACP gave the “N" word a funeral, and touch on the politics of the “N” word in the Kendrick v. Drake hip-hop beef.

Welcome home y’all!

Is This Space Really Safe? | MiniPod

This week hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum ask themselves, is this show a safe space? What is our obligation as a show to create a safe space for ourselves and for the audience, and what does “safe space” mean, anyway?

This is a follow up from last week’s MiniPod that got a liiittle heated.

Welcome home y’all!

Debate on! Grift or Gift at FAMU? Are Black Women Headed to the Senate?

This week hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum ask: when will we see a Black woman in the US Senate?? The United States has only ever had three Black women as senators. Currently there are none, but two candidates may change that come November…

Speaking of elections, what’s up with these Trump surrogates already denying the ‘24 election before it’s even happened? And what will actually happen if Trump loses in November but his supporters don’t accept the results? The hosts discuss this and the relevance (or not) of presidential debates.

Then, our resident expert on all things FAMU, Andrew Gillum, covers the drama coming out of his alma mater. Florida A&M University received a $237 MILLION dollar donation last week, complete with a huge check that they showed off at graduation. But it turns out the whole thing was a hoax??

In Politics Are Everywhere— Welcome to the W! Sports reporter Tiffany Cross opens up the WNBA season.

And of course we’ll hear from you, our #NLPFan listeners.
