The Invention of “Sesame Street”
Renata Adler’s 1972 review of the program that revolutionized children’s television.
“Small children from poor or middle-class families who watch ‘Sesame Street’ do better on cognitive tests and in first grade than children who do not watch it,” Renata Adler wrote, in 1972.

Every pro-Black minded (or friendly) nerd who loved Priest’s Black Panther, Lando vs. Chanath Cha, Spike’s Malcolm X, James Roberts’ Transformers, IHearCanvas’ mash ups, Larry Hama’s Marvel GI Joe run, Tom King’s Vision, animated Black Dynamite & the Venture Forth live play. Those are my people.

With no response from the authorities, I'm forced to reveal another panelist for The Black Panel at least daily until our demands are met.
Brace yourself for @quinnmcgowanart.bsky.social, 7/25 at 10AM in room 5AB. They have seven days to respond.
