Description

It’s being called the beginning of the end of the Trump era. Culture critics Alyssa Mercante and David Dennis Jr. break down the cultural implications of the midterm elections – and look ahead to how things could change in the years ahead. Also, recently the world of techno music lost one of its founding fathers: Detroit producer and deejay, Juan Atkins. Elamin is joined by Julian Chambliss to look back on Juan Atkins’ pioneering legacy and why techno music was always a playground for Black futurism.
