480 Minutes - Kevin Haskins Interview
Just as I know that the video section below featuring nothing but Parquet Courts makes it look like no other albums matter right now besides their new one, Wide Awake!, so sitting congressman Steve King (R-Iowhitesupremacist) knows that retweeting virulently anti-semitic self-described Nazi sympathizers means he agrees with virulently anti-semitic self-described Nazi sympathizers...and not just the one virulently anti-semitic self-described Nazi sympathizer he retweeted and refused to delete this week.
Next, the racist investigating "black identity extremist groups" even though at a hearing he could not for the life of him identify a single one, Attorney General of the United States Jeff Sessions, used a biblical quote to justify the enforcement of a policy to punish migrant families by separating children from their parents. He employed the same biblical quote used often by white Americans 150 years ago to justify slavery. Think about that for a moment.
In other news, the live-hosted portion of today's 480 Minutes show may be a bit short because I have to run to see The Magnetic Fields perform the first half of 50 Song Memoir at The Apollo Theatre. With that in mind the last hour of the show will likely be focused around the aforementioned interview with Kevin Haskins.
Today's BAGeL Radio debuts will include new music today from Automatic (Los Angeles, CA), Flasher (Washington D.C.), gobbinjr (Brooklyn, NY, @gobbinjr420), IDLES (Bristol, England, @IdlesBand), Johnny Marr (Manchester, England, @Johnny_Marr), Julian (Washington D.C., @juliandc), Menace Beach (Leeds, England, @menace_beach), S.M.
