Hello Diane...

I’ve taken to using the word food (pron. fuud) with my friends who’ve also watched it, but we mean books.  Just the other day a friend had Renee Watson’s latest and I kept on her about it. “Wagwan, when you getting me that fuud man.” 

There’s talk of one more series (aka season).

Justice for Juicy!!

Brown Estate is fantastic! The winery is for members only but you can get that online although flooding may have changed things up there so call first. They opened up a tasting room in downtown Napa not too long ago and the best bet is make a reservation before you visit. For everyone else, I recommend visiting

Lasha22 I binged it several weeks ago. It was very good but I have to ask. Do people really talk/communicate like they do in the dialogue? If so, then all those hours of what constitutes sexual harassment, et al. type training that lawyers have been ramming down the throats of their corporate clients doesn’t actually

And Adam McKay who really loves to skewer our ruling class with a passion. 

It’s still a beautiful work of art, I hope you can give it that. 

SIR!

Mau has some serious life events that have made him so ridged (and insufferable) I just want Orna to pull the plug.  At times I want to say the same to Desean but I see those glimmers as to why he and Elaine click but her trauma is really getting in the way of that. 

Nah, I didn’t write anything about you being a horrible person.  I just looked at what you wrote and provided more information for the rest of the readers who may not know much about South African history.

Well, your statement said “they’ve had major problems with political corruption since the end of apartheid.” That implies that political corruption did not exist before then.

FYI, Apartheid itself is a form of political corruption.

Because white supremacy knows no borders.

In their mind? Exist

Geeze only a passing mention about characters being kidnapped for enslavement. 

If it makes you feel any better I lived 3 blocks away from the first Block Party. The day of I checked the weather, saw rain in the forecast and told myself “eh if it’s any like your usual Brooklyn block party it will just be a DJ on the side, tube socks, bed sheets and corn on a stick for sale.”  I went for dim sum

I wish I could have introduced you to my maternal grandfather , a working man with a 3rd grade education and my father, a teacher. They both grew up in the Jim Crow south and were absolute fiends for the game. Caddying for them introduced me to other Black people from all walks of life who really enjoyed the game.

That’s true, and I’ve also worked at a lot of places that protected trash workers too. Bad management is bad management 

Well, low pay is relative and losing a union definitely impacts pay rates. As for not being exploited, I would tend to think  that settling a $3.75 million dollar lawsuit for sexual harassment & racial discrimination might give credit to exploitation. 

That right, and in these plants which have women doing these jobs they are particularly vulnerable to sexual harassment.
