New World Order: Global Events 1990-1994 Intelexual Media 2023-12-15 | What were the major (and not-so-reported-but-still-major) world events of the early 1990s? The USSR was dying, the economy was suffering, and problems abounded. Observers theorized on America's future role in a post-soviet world. First, we look into America's foreign policy and George Bush's New World Order speech before noting the role of the United Nations. Then we travel to dozens of locations around the world (from the UK, to France, to Afghanistan, to Palestine, to Rwanda, to South Africa, to Cuba, to Peru, to Japan, to China-- and lots of places in between. How did structural adjustment, the World Bank, and the international monetary fund impact developing nations? How did George Bush lie about Iraq? How were revolutionary governments neutered by globalization and neoliberal politics? How did some governments, like China and Cuba, adapt? How did the world fail Rwanda and other nations struggling from genocide?

"Black love" is not an important term to everyone, but I have always rooted for it and hope to see healthier and inclusive versions of it in media. I get tired of seeing arguments about black men and women's marriage rates, black women's desirability, dating bus drivers, $200 dates, hypergamy, gold diggers, interracial dating, etc. What are black women facing when it comes to dating? I also wanted to explore those topics as well by contextualizing reality dating shows and providing a bit of history. Not only have they been historically racist to black women, but they have grown from fun game show gimmicks to serious commitments-- why do people enjoy them and how did we get here? How have reality shows simply reflected the truth and how have they distorted it? Should black women settle?

Who Was The Atlanta Ripper? | Its A Mystery Intelexual Media 2023-03-17 | When a certain kind of black woman began getting killed around Atlanta in 1910, it made the news. As bodies piled up, black churches urged City Council and the governor to set a reward. They were supported by prominent white Atlantans, including Asa Candler, the future mayor of Atlanta and the founder of Coca-Cola. But how many victims existed, and how does it foreshadow the treatment of future murder cases involving black women when it comes to investigation and crime? In this episode of It’s A Mystery, we’ll be discussing The Ripper. No, not that ripper!
