Summary

We recap some of the biggest legal and cultural moments of the year and what got us through, prompting the question: can you sue the year 2020 for “alienation of affection” given how it separated us from loved ones often with devastating consequences? On the Docket this week, Eboni and Dustin discuss the lawsuit against Kobe Bryant’s widow Vanessa Bryant, and developments in a lawsuit by the estate of Michael Jackson against HBO regarding the Leaving Neverland documentary. And Eboni shares a personal cautionary tale about what it means to be single and/or married.

Are Black people safe to take the COVID-19 vaccine? Get the facts from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and listen to a discussion Eboni had on REVOLT Black News with Dr. Chris T. Pernell and why, as a Black physician, she volunteered to be in a vaccine trial.
