Moderator Opportunity for POC Buzz & Entertainment!

Across Reddit, so many entertainment subs overlook Black, Brown, and Indigenous entertainers and sports figures — so this community was created to change that and bring people together to celebrate the voices that deserve way more shine. The sub is growing fast, and now’s your chance to help build something special from the ground up!

We’re looking for enthusiastic new moderators who want to shape the vibe, support the community, and help this space thrive. If that sounds like you, send a message through modmail with:

  • Your location
  • How often you’re on Reddit
  • Any mod experience (experience not reqirued!)
  • Why you want to be a mod and how you can help us grow

You’ll hear back within 24–48 hours, and there may be a follow‑up question or two. If selected, you’ll join our mod group chat — so keep those DMs open!

Thanks for helping build POC Buzz & Entertainment into a vibrant, uplifting home for the culture. Let’s make something amazing together! 🎉🔥

Remembering Tommy Lister on what would have been his 67th birthday today

Lister was born on June 24, 1958, in Pine Bluff, Arkansas, to Thomas Duane Lister Sr. and Mildred (née Edwards) Lister. He grew up in Compton, California.[7] Since birth, he had a deformed and detached retina in his right eye, causing permanent blindness in that eye.[6]
Lister attended Palomar Junior College before transferring to Long Beach City College for his sophomore year. While at Long Beach, he recorded a 52 ft (16 m) shot put throw, which helped to earn him a scholarship to California State University, Los Angeles. In his senior year, he won the national shot put title with a mark of over 61 ft 8 in (18.8 m). Lister was the 1982 NCAA Division II National Shot Put Champion.[6][8]
After college, Lister competed for the Converse Track Club, eventually raising his shot put mark to 64 ft 3 in (19.58 m), before trying out with the New Orleans Breakers of the United States Football League.[6] He was cut after two exhibition games and opted to pursue acting instead.[9]
