Hawk Newsome, head of Black Lives Matter Greater New York, caused a stir on Fox News by stating that if the system doesn't change, the movement will "burn it down." President Trump labeled the rhetoric as treason and sedition. The hosts note that the Black Lives Matter Global Network officially distanced itself from Newsome, labeling him as "fake" to protect their corporate-friendly brand.
The hosts examine how Hollywood typically portrays black men with guns as criminals or gang members rather than "good guys." Mo'fax recalls the character Hawk from the 1980s show "Spenser for Hire" as a rare positive role model who inspired him as a child. They call for the entertainment industry to feature more responsible, armed black protagonists to shift public perception and improve "public health."
