The Black Godfather of Horror: A Tribute to Tony Todd
Three things I don’t do anymore: ride roller coasters, drive behind a truck with logs, and get on bridges that are under construction. One movie is the reason why: Final Destination. But what I remember most about the film is that it starred one stereotype-defying Black man who did not die first — Tony Todd.

The Bold Type

The Eyes of Tammy Faye
As silly as Tammy Faye Bakker seemed on the surface, behind the layers of make-up and over-the-top TV persona was a strong, resilient woman, someone whose story sheds light on the growing power and greed of mass-marketed evangelicals.
