Happy Halloween! This month's edition of Queerly Nerdy has me discussing the movie-musical Kiss of The Spider Woman, the tv show Glee, the video game Digimon Cyber Sleuth, and my friend @blkpansy.bsky.social audiobook memoir Pansy
Musicals, monsters (of the digital variety), and a memoir are among the pop culture artifacts giving @wordsfromapenn.com some much needed glee.

I was doing research for the book chapter I’m writing and was surprised to learn that, after they had a falling out, Adam Clayton Powell, Jr. threatened to tell the press that Martin Luther King, Jr. was having an affair with MLK’s then-mentor Bayard Rustin.

The Eric Dyson's takedown of Cornel West got us recalling some epic disagreements between black thinkers over the years; beefs like this have been going on for at least 150 years.
