Head of State

Inauguration Day is here and we are celebrating (or rather mourning) by reviewing the 2003 film Head of State, written by, directed by, and starring Chris Rock. We reflect on the premise of the film, "what would happen if a Black man ran for president", the eerie similarities between Rock's character and Donald Trump, Chris Rock's career, and if this film helped the cause!This week's episode is brought to you by Squarespace!
