Summary

Julio and guest co-host Jamilah King, managing editor at BuzzFeed News, unpack the Monkeypox virus and its impact on the LGBTQ+ community. They also get into the latest on the Justice Department’s investigation into January 6, and the upcoming Black Panther sequel, Wakanda Forever.

  • In this piece for Politico, Betsy Woodruff Swan, Kyle Cheney and Josh Gerstein write about the growing list of criminal and civil investigations aimed at former President Trump for his role in trying to overturn the 2020 election, and in the violence at the Capitol on January 6th.

  • César Delgado writes about the Mesoamerican and Indigenous influences in Wakanda Forever, the sequel to Black Panther, in this piece for Latino Rebels.
