Can Copaganda Ever Be Good? ft. Tia Oso & Dr. Jared Loggins

Episode notes

It’s finally here, the long awaited…*drum roll please*…Copaganda episode! That’s right, our hosts were finally able to have a sit down with Tia Oso, the executive director of BLD PWR Productions, and Dr. Jared Loggins, Assistant Professor of Black Studies at Amherst College and co-author of Prophet of Discontent: Martin Luther King Jr. and the Critique of Racial Capitalism to discuss the effects Copaganda has on audiences and its insidiousness. But first – what y’all bringing to the Donald Trump is Going to Jail Party? And don’t say plates and napkins!
