PoC News in America
This week in PoC News is video-heavy so make sure your roommates aren’t hogging all the bandwidth.
If you are like me and automatically reject 99 percent of what people recommend, you probably are already grimacing at the praise The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt has received.

We Try It: Megamind, in theaters now
The new Dreamworks animated film Megamind opened this past weekend, and encouraged by the delightfulness that was last year’s Monsters vs. Aliens, I decided to check it out. It turned out to be pretty enjoyable, sort of a Dr. Horrible’s Singalong Blog for the kid set. My review and a couple of mild spoilers below […]
