The death of legendary actress Cicely Tyson at age 96 is discussed, with the hosts questioning why she did not receive a large-scale public funeral during the pandemic. Given her close relationship with Tyler Perry, they speculate whether she had received the vaccine prior to her passing. The segment honors Tyson's career as a groundbreaking Black actress and an "icon" of the community.
Reverend Jasper Williams Jr. faced significant backlash following his eulogy at Aretha Franklin's funeral, where he claimed Black America had "lost its soul." Williams criticized the prevalence of single-mother households and Black-on-Black crime, framing these issues through a biblical lens. Despite the controversy on social media and national news, the hosts suggest his views reflect a silent majority within the community that is suppressed by an "outrage machine."
