On today’s BradCast<\/i><\/a>, Brad is out and I’m in! Angie Coiro, of In Deep with Angie Coiro<\/i><\/a>. Brad’s on vacation this week.<\/p>\n

Today was just another day when someone of talent, depth, grace, and style glowed in serious contrast to the Toddler in Chief.<\/p>\n

On the same day Trump started whining and shrieking early on Twitter — and his minions scrambled to regroup after Rudy Giuliani cut loose on Fox — the rap alter-ego of Donald Glover dropped the video for the song he debuted on Saturday Night Live<\/i><\/a>. It’s shocking. It’s a revelation about race and manhood and American pop culture. It’s – oh, just go watch it.<\/p>\n

If Trump finally gets around to thanking the Waffle House hero<\/a> for saving lives, maybe then he’ll commend Glover for this stunning piece of art.<\/p>\n

Nah.<\/p>\n

Then it’s a quick review of the headlines, including a story almost lost in the roar: news from the CDC<\/a> about a scary rise in sexually transmitted diseases. Maybe the grimmest bit: a twenty-eight percent increase<\/i> in syphilis among newborns. Medical professionals who haven’t be presidentially stifled yet are tying the rise to a lack of comprehensive sex education in schools.<\/p>\n

My first guest after that rundown is author Morgan Jerkins<\/b> with her book, This Will Be My Undoing: Living at the Intersection of Black, Female, and Feminist in (White) America<\/i><\/a>.<\/p>\n

A key voice from the Daily Stormer has been uncovered as an IT consultant<\/a> living in Montreal. Good time to review a conversation I had earlier this year with author and investigative journalist Dave Neiwert<\/b><\/a>. His book Alt-America: The Rise of the Radical Right in the Age of Trump<\/i> traces the route of hate and white supremacy in America from the country’s beginnings right up to today.<\/p>\n

Enjoy! Insofar as one can…<\/p>\n
