  • Women Still Get Squeezed in Rap Beef - Preview to Episode 262

    Women Still Get Squeezed in Rap Beef - Preview to Episode 262
    May 8 2024
    This week on Black on Black Cinema, the crew returns to announce the next film, "The American Society of Magical Negroes." The film follows a young man, Aren, who is recruited into a secret society of magical Black people who dedicate their lives to a cause of utmost importance: making white people's lives easier. The random topic this week is about the rap beef between Kendrick Lamar and Drake. However, as there are so many other shows talking about the lyrical contest, we decided to take a different angle on what this beef means in a larger context. Frankly, how it and many other rap beefs tend to squeeze women in the middle as named victims, weaponized sexual encounters, and even the stripping of their humanity to be used as merely objects for these men to manipulate for the end goal of winning the contest in the court of public opinion.

Over the course of the film, Wilkerson travels throughout Germany, India, and the United States to research the caste systems in each country's history. The film stars Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor, Jon Bernthal, Niecy Nash-Betts, Audra McDonald, Vera Farmiga, Blair Underwood, and Nick Offerman.
