Braving the Storm! Afronerd Radio Returns Fully Packed 2nite at 7pm! Topics- NY deals with Irene; Slavery the Video Game?; IN Rep vs the Tea Party

Well folks...we survived the wrath of Hurricane Irene in one piece and we're back and fully packed for this evening's Afronerd Radio broadcast! Our apologies for the delayed airing but we, not unlike many on the east coast were without power (the internet, notwithstanding) and unable to proceed with last week's show. So it's definitely catch-up time-join us tonight at 7pm live as we pontificate on the following topics: Dburt will attempt to give us an annotated of last week's preempted show (the "White" Michael Vick hubbub; former NBAer accused of murder; Paypal founder paying young folk NOT to go to college, etc); hopefully makers of a video game entitled, Slavery the Game are not serious but a Youtube trailer hits the net anyway; Hurricane Irene and the aftermath; Indiana congressman, Andre Carson apologizes for proclaiming that the Tea Party wants Blacks "hanging on a tree"; after having seen a significant portion of Hollywood's latest hit, The Help, Dburt gives his thoughts and if time permits, a young man who lost his eye has a mini cam implanted to record what he cannot see. Call us live at 646-915-9620 or via email/IM at afronerdradio@yahoo.com. And speaking of Rob Spence (the filmmaker with the missing eye) here is the youtube clip detailing his experience (and that of other "cyborgs) in a documentary called Deus Ex-
