About this episode

DL Hughley discusses the troubling trend of attacking Black women in media and politics, alongside various social issues.

Why has attacking Black women become everybody’s favorite pastime? Laura Loomer launched a racist tirade against Angie Nixon, Ketanji Brown Jackson, and other powerful Black women. Brandon Tatum went after Michelle Obama’s appearance—and dragged DL Hughley’s wife into it. Different messengers. Same tired target. DL breaks down the ugly pattern behind these attacks: Black women are mocked when they speak, degraded when they lead and judged when they refuse to make themselves smaller. This isn’t political debate. It’s racism, misogyny and manufactured outrage dressed up as “free speech”—because disrespecting Black women still generates clicks, influence and money. DL also examines the tragic death of Haitian college student Pierre Damas Bel after he was forced to wear an ICE ankle monitor, the disturbing string of suspicious hanging deaths across America, Ryan Clark turning an ESPN exit into a major Netflix win—and Hunter Biden’s latest interview that leaves one unavoidable question: What was in that pipe? This episode is fearless, personal, and unapologetic. Watch to the end, tell us where you stand and subscribe to Uncertain for the conversations other shows are afraid to have…
