The Alabama parole board on Thursday voided the parole of Jerry Lett, sending the 52-year-old veteran back to prison despite his full compliance with parole conditions. The Alabama Board of Pardons and Parole in September granted Lett a rare early parole, which Lett has closely adhered to in the months since his release. But the state said they erred in setting Lett's hearing after a 2019 change in parole laws. Lett's early parole consideration date was set for 2020 when he was first sentenced for cocaine trafficking in 2018. Lett is expected to report for arrest on Friday morning.

Ryan Coogler has three feature films under his belt — “Fruitvale Station,” “Creed,” and “Black Panther” — and each has generated an abundance of Oscar buzz and/or Oscar nominations. “Creed” landed Sylvester Stallone in the Best Supporting Actor race, while “Black Panther” landed six nominations, including Best Picture, and three wins for Best Production Design, Best Original Score, and Best Costume Design. Despite all the love from the Academy, Coogler has no interest in becoming a member. The filmmaker told The Hollywood Reporter he turned down an offer to join AMPAS and remains a nonmember to this day. “I don’t buy into this versus that, or ‘this movie wasn’t good enough to make this list,'” Coogler said. “I love movies. For me, that’s good enough. If I’m going to be a part of organizations, they’re going to be labor unions, where we’re figuring out how to take care of each other’s families and health insurance. But I know that these things bring exposure.”

Children's author Dav Pilkey is sorry for "harmful racial stereotypes and passively racist imagery". The book, titled The Adventures of Ook and Gluk: Kung-Fu Cavemen from the Future, was first published in 2010.
