The killing of Sandra Bland remains a gaping wound in our hearts. We see how nicely Capitol Police treated white rioters and how violently they treat Black people. Sandra Bland is one of those police murdered over nothing. And they tried to tell us it was a suicide. I spoke about her life and her tragic end with the directors of an HBO doc about her called Say Her Name back in 2018 when the film premiered.

My sister the ER Doc deals with immense pressure in a calm way. The hospital is chaotic but she can handle it even when it smells like charred human flesh. And climbing the corporate ladder can be like battling your way through a jungle. But she can handle that, too.

Antebellum is a powerful and triggering new film starring Janelle Monae as a modern woman trapped in a slavery nightmare. Some people will like this film, some will hate it. I watched it twice even though at times it was hard to watch the intense slavery scenes but it should be hard to watch slavery scenes. But filmmakers need to be thoughtful about why they’re taking us through slavery because it’s dredges up deep, painful feelings. Bush and Renz are a couple and the co-directors of this controversial film and I spoke to them both about what they made and why.

Arundhati Roy is one of the great writers of her generation. She’s a novelist who writes beautifully and an essayist who’s a powerful activist. Her work has meant so much to me over the years so it was a real honor to Zoom with her from India to hear her thoughts about writing, America, and how the pandemic can be a portal to a whole new world if we allow it.
