In this episode Hilliard and Lisa look back with actor Dwayne Barnes and the controversial role he played as a crack head in the hit film Menace II Society. Sparked by a conversation that went viral on Deadline between Jay Baker agent at CAA and black Literary Manager Jewerl Keats Ross — disgustingly ties in Dwayne’s scenes in Menace — which Jay used against Jewerl with racial and homophobic undertones.
The first Deadline article is from the Jewerl Ross: https://deadline.com/2021/03/caa-lit-agent-jay-baker-abrupt-exit-jewerl-keats-ross-menace-2-society-barry-jenkins-1234722958/
