The photo of Haitian immigrants being whipped by white men on horses has us all the way triggered. The heartlessness toward immigrants is difficult to see especially when a lot of the displacement of people in Haiti and Afghanistan and Cuba and other countries is because of America’s geopolitical oppression. Get ready for a very heated Democracyish. Hosts: Danielle Moodie & Touré Executive Pro...

Nicki Minaj lied. There’s no one in Trinidad whose balls are swollen because of the Covid vaccine. She lied and she tried to defend by attacking Joy Reid which is extra wack. Political leaders from three countries are debunking and dismissing her ridiculous story so it’s a geopolitical dragging so you know we had to pile on. That’s how we roll at Democracyish.

Texas has outlawed abortion and voting (pretty much) because the Republican Party is run by white people who stand in judgement of people who are not like them, people who feel they must protect their superiority, people without empathy who know better than mothers what they should do with their unborn, who know better than immigrants where they should be, who know better than everyone. We hate it...

Kanye’s new album has us wondering what is wrong with him and why does he seem to dislike Black people? Why is he so lost and what does his late mother have to do with it?

The GOP is out of their minds. They are detached from reality. They are spoiled children. Our faith in the future of this country is plunging. We hate it here.

DaBaby is da homophobe. Isn’t he allowed to say whatever he wants? Isn’t it a free country? Nah. His attack puts people in danger. And what Lil Nas X and trans kids have to do with all this.

Simone Biles, greatest gymnast of all time, dropped out of the Olympics. Is this a courageous step or a disappointing choke? Is it both?

Whitey is on the moon. Bezos, Branson, Musk—billionaires are obsessed with going into space when there are sooo many problems on Earth that they could solve. We break down how this is about the lionization of the wealthy and the destruction of unions and much more. Democracyish.   Hosts: Danielle Moodie & Touré Executive Producer: Adell Coleman Senior Producer: Ryan Woodhall Producer: Quinton...

The Victoria’s Secret Karen has us heated! White women weaponizing their tears is extremely dangerous for Black lives. We break down everything we saw in that insane video where a grown woman lays on the floor and cries like a baby as a way of throwing out the race card and demanding it work.

We love Black food so much we had to devote an episode to talking about great fried chicken and gumbo and biscuits and mashed potatoes and gravy. It’s random but it works.   Hosts: Danielle Moodie & Touré Executive Producer: Adell Coleman Senior Producer: Ryan Woodhall Producer: Quinton Hill Distributor: DCP Entertainment Support the show: https://www.dcpofficial.com/democracy-ish See omnystud...

Happy Juneteenth. We talk about the holiday, our ancestors, Critical Race Theory, High On the Hog, Exterminate All The Brutes, and the path to true liberation—eliminating the wealth gap and how to do that.

If someone showed up with a time machine and said your Black ass has to go back to another time in American history, when would you go back to? Most of us would say no, I’m not going anywhere. But some of us might say the 1960s would be cool. But is there a reason to want to go back even further? To go back to the 1700s or the 1600s? This week we discuss Black time travel. Democracyish.   Hosts: D...

White people stay plotting… From Naomi Osaka to Simone Biles to Venus Williams we’re talking about women we love who give us strength. And we talk about Black TV we love because self-care matters. And wypipo are crazy.

Nikole Hannah Jones is the scariest Black person in America right now because she makes white people aware of themselves and their history and the racism they’ve been a part of. Why is Nikole and 1619 and Critical Race Theory so frightening? Why is it that the right wants us to keep Dr. Seuss but cancel Nikole Hannah Jones? And how can you be racist without being mean? And what the hell is wrong w...

The GOP blocks an inquiry into 1/6 because they’re a garbage party that’s detached from reality. But—Trump is close to facing *criminal* charges! Do Danielle and Toure think he’s going to… prison? Unsurprisingly, they disagree.

Now for something completely different—this week Toure and Danielle are on vacation and the show has been taken over by “Josh” and “Brittany” two Black MAGA-loving maniacs. They’re Black but not like Black-Black. You’ll see. It’s a very special episode of Democracyish or I should say MAGAish.   Hosts: Danielle Moodie & Touré Executive Producer: Adell Coleman Producer: Ryan Woodhall Editor: Qui...

Over here we have lefties who won’t take the vaccine. Over here we have righties who won’t accept Critical Race Theory. Both of y’all are workin our last nerve. Plus why Kamala Harris can’t say America is a racist nation even though we know that she knows the deal.

We are traumatized yet again by police murder. This time Andrew Brown Jr. And Mario Gonzalez. The police are insane—America just got finished convicting one of their guys and they’re still murdering us with impunity. That plus why are Black people so anti-vax? We’re the most likely to get Covid and the least likely to take the vaccine. Make it make sense please. I hate it here. Democracyish.   Hos...

Chauvin is guilty. And that’s cathartic. But Ma’Khia is dead. And it starts again. We talk with Elie Mystal through the pain of being Black in this moment, the key moments in the trial, the question of whether or not Kim Potter will go to prison for murdering Daunte Wright, and what can we do for self-care in this very traumatic moment for Black people. Democracyish.   Hosts: Danielle Moodie &...

We interrupt our conversation about the trial of a white cop who murdered a Black person to bring you a new story about a white cop who murdered a Black person. Daunte Wright is dead. And we’re heartbroken. We talk about Daunte, Chauvin, Nazario, America, and how to get some self-care in a traumatizing moment like this.   Hosts: Danielle Moodie & Touré Executive Producer: Adell Coleman Produce...

The Derek Chauvin trial is triggering but we can’t turn away. Toure is confident that he will be convicted—the Chief of Minneapolis Police testified against him. Danielle is certain he’s getting off—have you seen America??? We talk to legal genius Elie Mystal for some critical insight.   Hosts: Danielle Moodie & Touré Executive Producer: Adell Coleman Producer: Ryan Woodhall Editor: Quinton Hi...
