Show Notes
On this week's filibuster, Jemele takes aim at the fake outrage over male NFL cheerleaders. Jemele is then joined by award-winning filmmaker Spike Lee, who discusses his new film, Highest to Lowest, his fifth collaboration with Denzel Washington. Spike reveals what makes his chemistry and collaboration with Washington special, and whether or not this could be their last film together. Spike also shares what he thought of the Knicks firing coach Tom Thibodeau, and whether he’d like to see LeBron James as a Knick before he retires. And finally, Jemele shares a response to Jillian Michaels, the fitness personality who sparked controversy by minimizing the impact of slavery.
