A surprise awaited “black-ish” creator Kenya Barris and his family on a 2016 visit to the newly opened National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington: An exhibit on the TV series was on display.
“I was very, very emotional” at seeing the honor, Barris said. He returned to the Smithsonian museum earlier this month for a splashy salute to “black-ish” as the end of its eight-season run approached.
“It was just surreal. The Smithsonian, as a brand, is tied to things that are lasting, that are part of what the core DNA of this world is. To put our show in that, it meant a lot to me,” he said.

told the Hollywood Reporter.Known as the “Godfather of the US paparazzi culture” and “Paparazzo Extraordinaire,” the shutterbug shot more A-listers than perhaps any photographer in America during his six-decade career in photojournalism: John Lennon, Mick Jagger, Elvis Presley, Princess Diana, Paul McCartney, Bob Dylan, David Bowie, Michael Jackson, Andy Warhol and so many more.Though iconic, some of the Bronx-born fotog’s shots landed him in trouble — mostly because his subjects were unaware he was shooting them.His work methods, regarded as unethical by some or genius by others, ultimately produced some of the most highly regarded iconographies — a testament to his keen eye — evident in “Windblown Jackie,” which infuriated the First Lady but delighted Galella.“This decisive moment photo, which I titled, ‘Windblown Jackie,’ is my favorite, most published picture and the best-selling print of all time at my fine art galleries worldwide,” he wrote in 2021. “It’s a superior picture, like DaVinci’s most famous painting, the Mona Lisa.

Ron DeSantis revoking Disney’s special tax district privileges and self-governing abilities.DeSantis signed the measure into law on Friday, marking the latest move by the Governor who has repeatedly railed against “woke corporations.” It was widely viewed as retaliation to Disney over their objections to Florida’s “Don’t Say Gay” law. To kick off the discussion on Monday, “View” host Ana Navarro admitted that though she originally supported DeSantis when he became Florida’s governor, she’s lost faith in him and is “really bothered” by his actions against Disney.“I don’t understand, though, how you can call yourself a pro-business, pro-freedom of speech, small government, against canceling conservative, if you want to cancel one of the major corporations in Florida for freely speaking their mind in protection of their employees,” Navarro said.She also pointed out how the bill primarily targets Disney, which is definitely not the only company to have a special tax district in the state.“There are 1,844 special taxing districts in Florida.
