Bridging the Gap: Black Greek Life

Ali Siddiq tells true stories and breaks down the differences between his 'old son' and his 'new son', and spoiler, one of them is way better than the other. In a break from the hugely successful 4 part Domino Effect series, which has over 40 million views on YouTube, this new special gives a look into Ali's family life, his sometimes unconventional parenting strategies, and his role as a father of 9 children.

War....that is all we hear from Ukraine these days. And without a doubt, war is ever present on the mind of every Ukranian, as drones strike their cities almost everyday.

But Ukranians also continue, amazingly, to live their lives. There is an amazing country that's been forgotten after the years of their war of defense. No one tells you about the varied landscapes the country offers; mountains, plains and even beaches in the south. Magnificent cities with thousands of years of history. And a population with a resilience and sense of humor like no other.

In spite of the risks I read in the media, I decided to travel Ukraine, from one end to another. This is my journey, from the capital Kyiv in the north, to the port city Odesa in the south. And what a journey it was..

🎬 Saturday Afternoon Movie Showcase: Separate But Equal – Part Two (1991)

Continuing our feature, we present Part Two of Separate But Equal, the acclaimed 1991 miniseries dramatizing the historic Supreme Court case Brown v. Board of Education. This installment delves into the courtroom battles and behind-the-scenes efforts that led to the landmark decision declaring segregation in public schools unconstitutional. 

⸻

🎥 Feature Presentation: Separate But Equal – Part Two (1991)

Directed by George Stevens Jr., Part Two focuses on the strategic legal arguments presented by Thurgood Marshall (portrayed by Sidney Poitier) and his team from the NAACP Legal Defense Fund. The narrative captures the intense deliberations among Supreme Court justices, particularly Chief Justice Earl Warren (played by Richard Kiley), as they strive for a unanimous verdict. The film culminates in the Court’s decision that “separate but equal” educational facilities are inherently unequal, effectively overturning the precedent set by Plessy v. Ferguson.  

⸻

🎭 Cast & Crew
• Sidney Poitier as Thurgood Marshall
• Burt Lancaster as John W. Davis
• Richard Kiley as Chief Justice Earl Warren
• Cleavon Little as Robert L. Carter
• Gloria Foster as Mrs. Marshall
• John Coney – Director
• George Stevens Jr. – Writer
• Carl Davis – Music
• Nick Knowland – Cinematography
• John W. Wheeler – Editor     

⸻

🏆 Accolades

Separate But Equal received critical acclaim, winning the Outstanding Miniseries award at the 1991 Emmy Awards. It garnered eight Emmy nominations and three Golden Globe nominations, highlighting its powerful storytelling and exceptional performances.

Lars Gotrich | May 7, 2025
Music can transport you, even or especially when the destination's unknown. For 22 minutes, this is what Jeff Parker's Tiny Desk with the ETA IVtet can offer: a space for your mind to meditate on what the music speaks, set to a gossamer groove.

Even though Parker is in the group's name, equality runs the show: a quiet drone sets the tone, then the music is completely improvised. Stillness, followed by reflection and response. Josh Johnson, an alto saxophonist with a quiet-yet-commanding sense of effects, builds little worlds out of loops and fluttering melody. Jay Bellerose, a drummer who's worked with the likes of Allen Toussaint and Suzanne Vega, is painterly in his brush and stick work, but bursts with a sun-beamed drum fill when the moment calls. Anna Butterss performed next to Jenny Lewis for her Tiny Desk in early 2020; here, the bassist both provides a grounding presence and the basis for liftoff. Parker — an immediately recognizable, yet malleable guitarist known for his time in Tortoise, the Chicago Underground and a CV far too long to list here — plays with repetition until melodic figures reveal themselves. Informed by the members' backgrounds in jazz, ambient, funk, rock, electronic and minimalist music, the band's mystical approach to improvisation never bends to one sound at a time.

Andie Huether, our audio technical director for this concert, dug into NPR's equipment archives and set out a Nagra IV tape recorder on the Desk as a nod to engineer Bryce Gonzales, who developed a live mixing and recording rig with a similar unit for the band's sets at the now-closed ETA club in Los Angeles. "In the days before portable digital recorders," Huether explains, "NPR reporters and engineers would take machines like this one into the field to capture reporting and bring (or ship) the resultant tapes back to HQ to be edited and incorporated into our broadcasts." We didn't record this Tiny Desk analog, but the spirit remains: a conversation captured in small space, one worth watching — and hearing — over and over again.
