Beyoncé is bringing her fans of color to country music. Will they be welcomed in?

Quick Glance: Beyoncé: Diversity in Country Music and Challenges Ahead

Beyoncé's latest project is not only No. 1 on the Billboard 200 for the second consecutive week, but she became the first Black woman to top Billboard’s country album chart.

Beyoncé's steamrolling into country music – and her motivation behind it — has reignited discussions about the genre’s origins and its diversity.

Reyna Roberts is part of a new generation of artists, like Shaboozey, Tanner Adell and Willie Jones, who are fusing country with other genres like hip-hop.

Fans and experts seem to agree that Beyoncé has created an education on Black country trailblazers like Linda Martell and Rhiannon Giddens, and is providing an immeasurable amount of attention toward existing artists.

Voters in Enid, Oklahoma, oust city council member with ties to white nationalism

Quick Glance: Enid, Oklahoma Residents Remove Council Member Associated with White Nationalism

In Enid, a city in northwest Oklahoma, residents ousted a city council member with ties to white nationalism, as indicated by unofficial results released on Tuesday on the Oklahoma Election Board website.

Following the reporting of results from all four precincts in Ward 1 in Enid, it was revealed that voters decided to remove 42-year-old Judd Blevins. Instead, Cheryl Patterson, a grandmother and longtime youth leader at a local church, was chosen to take his place.

Despite his connections to white nationalist groups, Blevins, an Iraq War veteran, was narrowly elected to the position last year.

The initiative for the recall in Oklahoma was instigated by two long-time Enid residents, close friends Connie Vickers and Nancy Presnall, both Democrats in a region where Republicans hold a voter registration advantage of nearly 4-to-1.

The 'devil comet' is passing by the earth. Here's how to get a glimpse in Oklahoma

Quick Glance: Return of the 'Devil Comet' after 71 Years

The green, horned 'Devil comet' is now visible in Australian skies, offering a once-in-a-lifetime chance to see a unique celestial body.

The comet, whose nucleus has a 34km diameter, has been likened to Halley's comet due to its molecular structure and was nicknamed 'Devil comet' due to eruptions from its nucleus.

The 'Devil comet,' also known as 12P/Pons-Brooks, becomes more visible as it gets closer to the sun due to its hot icy core and gas trail. It will be at its brightest on 22 April, but finding it might be challenging as it competes with the full moon.

Experts suggest initially spotting the comet with binoculars or a telescope, although it will also be visible to the naked eye. It is considered a piece of history and special due to its brightness.
