Defining
Blackness:
How Racism Divides Black Communities
Video
Beyond the Scenes The Daily
Show 16 August 2022
From the One Drop
Rule to low essence media stereotypes,
America continues
to attempt to fit Blackness into a box.
This has led to
Black folks
policing their own Blackness and divisions
based on colorism
and ethnic backgrounds.
Daily Show writer
Ashton Womack, and Yaba Blay,
author of the book One Drop: Shifting the Lens on Race,
join Host Roy Wood
Jr. to attempt to define Blackness
as an ideology and
open up about moments
when they didn’t feel “Black enough.”

life without parole for 'felony murder'
A first-of-its-kind court case in Pennsylvania
is asking a big question:
How long do people need to stay in prison
before they get a second chance?
More than 1,000 people
are serving life without parole in Pennsylvania,
even though they never intended to kill anyone.
Seventy percent of those people are Black.

USA
Billingsley is best known
as the creator of the strip Curtis.
Debuting in 1988,
Curtis was one
of the first nationally syndicated comic strips
to feature a mostly Black cast.
Today, the strip is widely read
in print and digital platforms.
However, as a young Black cartoonist,
Billingsley struggled
to get the chance to portray his people
through his work.
