Last week we were invited by the [Muhammad Ali Center](http://www.alicenter.org/) to host a talkback panel after a screening of The New Black, a film looking at how LGBTQ activism, the black church, homophobia, and queer people of color affected the fight for [marriage equality in Maryland](http://www.washingtonpost.com/local/dc-politics/looks-like-maryland-is-making-a-historic-choice-on-marriage-equality/2012/11/07/ed73f59c-27d8-11e2-b2a0-ae18d6159439_story.html). The film was great (if there's [a screening near you](http://www.newblackfilm.com/screenings/), check it out), and our conversation after was quite lively, so we're bringing that to you this week in lieu of a feature interview. This week's Juicy Fruit: Friend to the show [Yaba Blay](http://yabablay.com/) has [won a first-place Independent Publishers Book Award Gold Medal Award](http://www.independentpublisher.com/article.php?page=1791) for her book, One Drop! We love her! LaVerne Cox was on the cover of TIME Magazine _(on her birthday!)_, and while the interview [has its problems](http://www.autostraddle.com/laverne-cox-is-amazing-on-the-cover-of-time-times-story-inside-not-so-much-239425/), it's not entirely bad, and she looked sickening on the cover.

And speaking of, [Orange Is the New Black comes back next week](http://www.al.com/entertainment/index.ssf/2014/05/orange_is_the_new_black_season_1.html) and we're trying so hard not to watch it all in two days this time but we probably will. Kim & Kanye got married, which lead us into a who-is-cuter argument regarding [Blue Ivy](ivy-smile.jpg?w=630&h=370">http://ioneglobalgrind.files.wordpress.com/2014/01/blue-ivy-smile.jpg?w=630&h=370) and [North West](west.jpg?w=630&h=394">http://ioneglobalgrind.files.wordpress.com/2014/01/north-west.jpg?w=630&h=394). We congratulate them, because, to paraphrase Jaison's facebook status, "Sometimes you gotta sleep with a few Ray Js before you find your Kanye." And speaking of true love, Stacey Dash [got a job at Fox News](http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/05/28/stacey-dash-fox-news_n_5405174.html), and we think they're a perfect match.
