Jordan Martins opens the show with some May TV and film streaming recommendations (2:45), then gets into a review of the LeSean Thomas' Netflix anime "Yasuke" (5:57). Then he discusses why he enjoyed the 2021 Oscars besides the snub of Chadwick Boseman for Best Actor (21:24). He reviews "The Falcon And The Winter Soldier" series (spoiler alert!) and covers how the show soars with its themes of Black identity (25:57). Jordan also gives a thorough breakdown of Isaiah Bradley's comic book origins and discusses how 2003's "Truth: Red, White & Black" comic was full of forgotten Black and American history. Historical topics include early American socialism, The Red Scare of 1919, real-life experiments on Black soldiers during World War II, and more (35:12).
