“Blame It on the Boogie” was first recorded by English singer-songwriter Mick Jackson in 1977 and released in 1978.

Weeks later, The Jacksons released their version, which became the big hit, and history largely forgot the original.

Happy 54th birthday to Karl Urban, who portrayed Éomer of Rohan in The Lord of the Rings. Even today, he still keeps Éomer’s helmet and says how much he loves it. 🎂 ❤️

The idea for SNL's infamous "WORD ASSOCATION" sketch featuring Chevy Chase and Richard Pryor began with Pryor's personal comedy writer Paul Mooney and Mooney's dislike of Lorne Michaels. Pryor, who was set to host, demanded they hire Mooney to help write to Pryor's voice but Lorne was skeptical so he personally interviewed Mooney to see if he should hire him for the episode, which Mooney felt was more an embarrassing examination based on his race than talent. Mooney said, "After all the bullshit I've been put through to get here, the fucking cross-examination Lorne subjects me to, I decide to do a job interview of my own."
The sketch was ranked in Rolling Stone magazine as #10 for their 50 Best SNL Sketches of All-Time list.

Marcia Hutchinson's novel was rejected 54 times before a small Black-owned publisher said yes.

Now The Mercy Step has been shortlisted for the 2026 Women's Prize for Fiction.

Hutchinson says race may have been a factor in her book getting rejected so many times.

“Turning my back on Malcolm was one of the mistakes that I regret most in my life. I wish I’d been able to tell Malcolm I was sorry, that he was right about so many things. But he was killed before I got the chance. He was a visionary ahead of us all. Malcolm was the first to discover the truth, that color doesn’t make you a devil. It is the heart, soul, and mind that define a person. Malcolm was a great thinker and an even greater friend. I might never have become a Muslim if it hadn’t been for Malcolm. If I could go back and do it over again, I would never have turned my back on him.”

—Muhammad Ali
