Is A Black Prime Minister Next?
LemonWade’s Academy Awards analyst, Rex Okpodu, who is based in London, has asked whether the fact that Paterson Joseph (pictured) may be the next Dr. Who is a harbinger of things to come in British politics. ‘America had a black President on TV (“24”) and in the movies (“Deep Impact”) before it had the real thing,’ Rex says. For Americans who don’t watch BBC America, “Dr. Who” is a very-long-running sci fi TV show in the U.K., with roots in Brit culture roughly as deep as “Star Trek”‘s are in the U.S.
