Are you easily confused by terms like cultural appropriation, cisgender, toxic masculinity, twunk, queer, black girl magic, and woke? Or maybe you’re tired of explaining terms like these and you need a community that gets you! Welcome to Minority Korner, where we take an introspective look at the world. through an intersectional lens. Join James: a queer, political, comedian, self proclaimed, sexy blerd (that’s Black Nerd) and each week he's joined in the Korner by another fabulous minority tackling pop culture, the news, media, and history all with a little self care, and self love sprinkled throughout! It’s time to Learn, Laugh, and Play, right here at Minority Korner- because together: we’re the majority! (Part of the Maximum Fun Network)

episode 292: MK292: Were You Silent, or Silenced? (Meghan Markle Interview, Coming 2 America, Nina Simone, Kid N' Play, History of Reggaeton, Bad Bunny, Bechdel Test)
Today we are a party with a purpose, it’s been a long time but comedic legend in the making and duchess of the podcasts Glory Mora makes her return. Speaking of royalty we unpack the tell all interview between our BAP Megan Markle and Queen Oprah herself, along with Megan's DAWM Harry ( don’t worry these acronyms will eventually make sense). Celebrating women’s history we celebrate the legacy of the High Priestess of Soul Nina Simone, her journey, her struggles, her legacy. And Glory pushes us down the Reggeaton rabbit hole uncovering it’s history and helps James understand what a Bad Bunny is and why I should care. But first the reviews are in for Coming 2 America and they are mixed even on this podcast. Also remember Kid N Play? James did a movie marathon so you don’t have to and reveals their origin story, and his theory of what happened to their career.
