211 - Black in a Box Year End Special

Season’s greetings. For our final pod of 2020 sadly Nate had to sit this one out but the rest of the gang get straight into some of the things that gave us surprise and delight in a year where simply surviving was a success. (0:56) But 2020 gonna keep on 2020ing and Alahna, Dan, Dom and Gelo pile up the talking points after Millwall fans booed players taking a knee in the first fixture fans were allowed back in post-Covid (09:47). 

From alleged Marxism to the warm and fuzzy feels of capitalism. Have you noticed the increasingly common centreing of brown families Christmasing merrily in big brand adverts? Empty corporate CSR or essential representation (30:50)? We talk the UK government scheduling a deportation flight during a global pandemic of Windrush British citizens. Just why is an opposition lead by a human rights lawyer maintaining a wall of silence?(59:20) It's December so we close out on our music of the year (1:12:48) and our moments of the year (1:27:52). And a final shout out to all our listeners who have helped us go from strength to strength. We’ll see you in 2021. Merry Christmas. Happy Hannukah. A joyous Kwanzaa and enjoy your holidays. Like.
