In the face of sexual assault accusations from over 50 women-- some dating back 50 years--it’s fairly difficult to make a defense for Bill Cosby. It goes without saying that his reputation as “America’s Dad” is so marred not even the most delicious JELL-O pudding pops can save it, and mom most definitely would not approve.

Allegations and court dispositions paint a picture of a man few of us would willingly let into our homes, much less into our neighborhood without an express notice that his name was on a list of registered sex offenders...

Picture being able to throw out your serum, moisturizer, primer, foundation, and sunblock! Think of the time, the energy, and perhaps most importantly, the money you could save!...

The authenticity of the characters and emotions in the film create a relatability that is personified in Dimitri, who is generally a good guy with a few bad habits, not unlike Trayvon Martin or Mike Brown. Therein lies DWB‘s crowning achievement—its relevance—or better still, its continued relevance. Purdy and Sapiano have captured the heightened frustrations of the Black experience with law enforcement in the last two years without ever intending to comment on current events.

Others, like Nelly, preferred to move in relative silence and let their actions do the talking. Following the events in Ferguson, the St. Louis rapper came under fire for not visiting the city right away. He eventually visited Ferguson to speak with protesters and created a scholarship fund in Michael Brown’s name...

In the Marvel Comics world, we’ve recently seen Thor become a woman and African American character Sam Wilson, aka The Falcon, become the new Captain America. Now, Marvel continues its superhero shake-up by upgrading Black-Latino Spider-Man, Miles Morales, to the main Marvel universe. Morales is a version of Spider-Man in the alternate universe line of comic books called Ultimate Marvel, but Marvel announced this week that the character would be taking center stage in the main storyline comics due to popular demand.

...The project certainly speaks for itself. Watching Marron’s edits of over 20 films so far leaves viewers in disbelief that diversity representation is so scant.
