From ‘93-95 I began shooting for my NYU doc class. Last summer I pulled that footage out of storage. “It Was All a Dream” is feature documentary, a visual memoir, my largely verite archive from the dawn of hip hop’s golden era. It debuts at Tribeca this June. Tix on sale 4/30

“In Newark, NJ, there’s black power and lots of black people, including old black women who are powerful people. And they don’t get ignored or swept under the rug. That has not been my experience through much of my life.” —Nell Irvin Painter apple.co/3vVXUdx
The industry wouldn't buy my script so I sold a book instead. "Black Fat Femme: A Celebration of Intersectional Identity Through Media" out spring of 2025. I love it here.
Everyone involved in this appears to have handled it with class and a sense of humor (even if Chick Fil A ultimately fumbled.)
So @ChickfilA told an employee to stop posting her lunch on TikTok as content. Nor were they interested in a collaboration. Well @shakeshack invited her to lunch with a sweet deal.

A little joke from my Writers Guild Awards monologue.
The essay that planted the seed for my memoir. And a great reason to subscribe to @TheAtlantic! Support great journalism.
When @JenishaWatts moved from Kentucky to New York to become a journalist, she hid her past. In 2023, she wrote about her harrowing childhood and the freedom that writing offered her: theatln.tc/AHJrfnn5

Before @joshgondelman comes over to my apartment my wife says “Hide the good seltzer. Josh has a problem.” It’s sad but true.

Thank you so much to the WGAE for inviting me to host this year’s awards and to the show’s incredible writers and producers for making me look good. Jacket and bow tie from Brooklyn Tailors! Cufflinks/button studs from Crowley Vintage! Pin courtesy of Artists For Ceasefire!
I love this caption/picture combo because it makes it look like I won an award for this joke. (I did not win an award.)
"One thing that’s special about our union, is that we don’t only represent TV and film writers. Our membership also spans several other dying industries." – Host @joshgondelman kicks off with jokes at the 2024 #WritersGuildAwards
