Brooklyn 99 - ChangeMakers #ICYMI - Using a Platform for Change
Listen now
Description
As a tribute to the magnificent Andre Braugher and his alter ego Captain Holt - we are re-releasing this episode with Brooklyn 99 writers and cast recorded back in 2018. What can we learn when a Hollywood TV show gets into ChangeMaking? Comedy show Brooklyn 99 took on police racism. How did they do it in a way that people didn’t turn off? We interviewed Terry Crews, Dan Good (Series Creator) and the writer of their #BlackLivesMatter episode Moo Moo Phil Jackson to find out about the politics behind the show. Listen in for the moment when Dan Goor does a magnificent Captain Holt. Vale Andre Braughter. We are on summer break and will return at the end of January 2024.
