And with that, I just finished the first draft of my 1st feature-length Hollywood script.
TAKEOVER will star Quavo from the Migos in an action-thriller co-written by Jeb Stuart (DIE HARD, THE FUGITIVE) from Trioscope and Quality Control.
NERV’s motto, 'God’s in His heaven. All’s right with the world', wasn’t created for the series.
It comes from Robert Browning’s 1841 poem Pippa Passes.
Issa Rae has given a shoutout for ‘IF I GO WILL THEY MISS ME,’ starring Danielle Brooks & J. Alphonse Nicholson.
“I describe it as a Black family coming of age story, like if Crooklyn and Moonlight had a baby… go support it [this weekend] we don't get these movies often.”
It’s Hispanic Heritage Night at Camden Yards and when Orioles’ Latino players ran out onto the field pregame to rep their countries’ flags, a contingent of Brewers decided to join them.
Pete Alonso met up post game with Mike, Nick & Chris - the trio of Mets fans who caught his 300th career home run.
They exchanged the ball for signed baseballs, bats and Alonso to sign their jerseys.
Pete brought beers and offered the trio tickets to games in Baltimore
The fans all standing up in the back celebrating when they converge on Lamar then putting their hands on their heads as Lamar escapes has me dying laughing.
A white American man hired Latino immigrants to build a expensive wood fence around his entire yard. Once they finished, he called ICE on them — hoping to get them deported so he wouldn't have to pay.
The thing was: they were legal. So they came back and ripped out every single fence panel, right in front of him.
Karma really said "not today." 🔨
Two Klansmen drove around Mobile, Alabama looking for any Black person to kill. They found a 19-year-old walking to the store for cigarettes.
His mother spent the next six years dismantling the Ku Klux Klan in a courtroom. Michael Donald. March 1981.
They beat him, killed him, and hung his body from a tree on a residential street, across from a Klansman's house, so the city would see it in the morning.
Police initially suggested it was a drug deal.
It was not. It was a Klan retaliation for a jury's failure to convict a Black defendant in another case — a life taken at random to send a message.
Beulah Mae Donald refused every version of the story except the true one. She pushed until the FBI reopened it. One killer confessed. The other was executed in 1997 — the first white man executed in Alabama for killing a Black person since 1913.
Then she did the thing nobody expected. She sued the United Klans of America itself.
In 1987 an all-white Alabama jury awarded her seven million dollars. The Klan had no money — so it handed over its national headquarters building. The organization was finished.
A mother buried her son and bankrupted the Ku Klux Klan.
@RobLongSports I don’t care what works for other organizations. That hasn’t worked here and it needs to be fixed. Albernaz may be a good coach, but he is not a leader or a good manager. He is a puppet for Elias.
