Today on The Culture Show, co-hosts Jared Bowen, Callie Crossley and Edgar B. Herwick III go over the latest headlines on our arts and culture week-in-review.
First up, President Trump’s latest directive to control culture. Yesterday he signed an Executive Order intended, in his words, to Restore Truth and Sanity to American History. He’s called for the restoration of monuments, memorials and statues quote “improperly removed or changed in the last five years to perpetuate a false revision of history.”
From there it’s Mayor Michelle Wu on “The Daily Show,” where she defied its reputation as a racist city by promoting it as diverse and welcoming.
Plus a look at Dawn M. Simmons' next act as the artistic director of the SpeakEasy Stage Company.
And the countdown to “The White Lotus” season finale. With only two episodes to go, will the show succeed in surprising audiences?
Finally, George Foreman’s legacy as a boxing champ turned king of the grill, making millions with his “lean, mean, fat-fighting machine.”
