BLACK LIVES MATTER (feat. Tina Zaman, Dalara Williams, Esky)

We would like to firstly give a trigger warning for this episode - The discussion (beginning 00:27:45) contains topics and concepts that some listeners may find distressing. 

 

Cheatmail - The Cheatcoders answers questions from listeners

(00:01:45) "do you think music albums will be obsolete in the future? why? and if so, what do you think will be the new body of work" 

 

(00:09:15) "considering we are mid-way through the year, how do you think 2020 will be talked about in history lessons in 2100?" 

 

Screencoders

(00:15:40) 

The boys discuss the TV series "Atlanta" and "Dave" created by Donald Glover and Dave "Lil' Dicky" Burd. 

 

(00:22:50)

Don shamefully has not yet seen the award winning movie, "parasite". Raf and Natz give their best pitches to convince Don to watch it. 

 

Guest Segment

(00:27:45)

Trigger Warning: This discussion contains topics and concepts that some listeners may find distressing. 

The Cheatcoders sit down with other creatives of colour to discuss the Black Lives Matter movement and the issue of Aboriginal deaths in custody. They touch on the history of discrimination & oppression of Black Americans and of Indigenous Australians.

There is no denying that racism still exists and the murder of George Floyd by Minneapolis police officers has shone a light on an injustice that has been present for hundreds of years. Similarly the mistreatment of Indigenous Australians is an issue that requires more awareness and change.

In our technological world, we have access to more information and we are more connected than ever before. There are many ways that we can stand alongside our Black American and Indigenous Australian brothers and sisters. The group discuss the need for us to be willing to research, have difficult conversations, and learn. Change won't happen overnight, but we have a responsibility to make sure that there is change.

Nathan De La Cruz

Profile picture for Nathan De La Cruz
Nathan De La Cruz, better known as 'Natz Blazin' from the days he went by his rap alias and the social media handle he still uses to this day simply goes by 'Natz' or 'Nate' now, when referred to by his friends in the realworld or by his initials 'ND' on anything to do with crypto and the 'metaverse' (Ready player 1 anyone?).

Most often than not an early adopter in tech and speculative social trends, Natz jumps from one idea to the next with a relentless thirst in chasing the next dopamine hit yet the 'Cheatcoders' has remained the only constant and a way to stay up to date with his peers and close friends, Raf, Don & Garcia back in hometown Sydney Australia.

Now residing in London UK, Natz spends most of his time being a dad to his newborn twin girls Margot & Jordyn learning the ropes of fatherhood while simultaneously involved in a row of start-up ventures as a content creator, community manager and most notably his recent and heavy involvement in building a blockchain gaming empire with the infamous Non-Fungible Gang.
