Kasumba: "I hope everybody can say they have the feeling that they're being represented out there"2/14/2018 As we creep ever so much closer to the release of Black Panther, I had the opportunity to sit down and chat with German Ugandan actress, Florence Kasumba, who picks up with her role as Ayo in the film. We might remember Kasumba from Captain America: Civil War with her iconic introduction of the Dora Milaje with "Move, or you will be moved". Courtesy of OkayAfrica, our interview, spanning no longer than 25 minutes features insight to Black Panther's infectious excitement, which, according to Kasumba, was also felt on set. Check out my latest, now available and fresh off the press at OkayAfrica. Florence Kasumba on the Impact of Black Panther: 'We're Telling a Story That Hasn't Been Told Before'

When Your Schedule Is Crazy & Hectic, Enjoy It!*I'm never one to go crazy over the events that are happening around me. I mean, after all, I've been through some trying times, right? I've given my time to unnecessary, unneeded, sometimes even required things, and all I've ever walked away with is a lesson on organizing my life. I start this out that way to open up and say that life is going absolutely crazy, but sometimes this is what makes us comfortable. Knowing we got a lot of shit going on. But I'll be honest, it might feel that way or even seem that way, but it's typically just perspective.
Looking back now, I have come to realize that my experience at The University of South Florida was extremely unique. I was probably one of the last individuals who, as a freshmen, walked the halls of the Phyllis P. Marshall Center - you know, with the Underground and the SEC, and the dingy carpets. The one that connected straight into the bookstore. Yeah, that one. I watched the tearing down of the Olde Marshall Center (yes, with the ‘e’ because...antique). But in a similar light. I watched the rise of Juniper-Poplar. I witnessed three head coaches of the football team. These things sound trivial at first because everyone had their own experience as an undergrad, but somehow I seem to have really felt jammed in the middle of two very large transitionary periods for the community.
Greetings, MarvelMob. I've been a little distant from my blog as of lately, and I know that seems a bit out of character. To be honest, I've been going through a number of transitions in my life and it has had my mind in the fray. I'm moving at nearly 3,000 mph and still managing to get more than 4hrs of sleep. But ya'll know how anxiety works. It now has me pondering like are you tired? Maybe 4hrs is a little too much there, buddy.
Likewise, I've noticed I've been off my game lately, so I have tons on tons of things to talk about. So, here are updates right from my brain. And as usual, subscribe to this blog page for updates, information, and more to come!
That's right! Yours truly returns to the GoodKnocking Radio airwaves for Marvel&Friends this Monday, April 17th, 2017 at 8:30pm. This opportunity to once again bring this interview-based show gives me a chance to bring some of the biggest names from Tampa and around the Bay area. If you tuned in last season, you heard some dope interviews, but this season we are cranking it up. To crank things up, though, we're bringing the show live each and every Monday at 8:30pm and I'll honestly tell you why.
A statement on GoodKnocking Entertainment Group's Recent Announcement on The Knockturnals, Our Radio Now, and More.
This past weekend, GoodKnocking announced the opening and repurposing of our Knockturnals. If you've been keeping up with us, you're probably already familiar with the term Knockturnal (which was introduced in 2014, a phrase coined by one of our guests). Originally, it represented our listeners, who would wait up until 10pm to tune in to our show. The term had been fitting, and was branded on our newsletter, shirts, and more. Sadly, we weren't exactly sure it resounded with our audience now that our station is 24/7 and even my show, Marvel&Friends, airs at 5pm in the afternoon. There was an untapped group that needed both the representation and the highlighting.
In preparations for the upcoming project, eMblem, new graphics have been released, celebrating the projects themes. Other than that, no new updates or information for what is to be included. 😎
