How The Jedi Built a Sith Lord

Yes, I know it is cliche now that people of my generation have retroactively tried to turn the prequels into art, and while I wouldn't go that far—with the absolute mess that was the handling of the structure of the sequel series we at least get a W for being able to at least string together a cohesive story for three installments.

Set It Off—A Truly Feminist Text

To quote bell hooks: "Feminism is a struggle to end sexist oppression. Therefore, it is necessarily a struggle to eradicate the ideology of domination that permeates Western culture on various levels, as well as a commitment to reorganizing society so that the self - development of people can take precedence over imperialism, economic expansion, and material desires."


In this video, we will be exploring how Set It Off crafts a film that is rooted in the intersection of class,...

Queen Charlotte & The Bridgerton Problem

While I overall support the efforts of bringing people of color into period dramas—mainly because they are a significant part of Western European media and therefore, I want talented actors of color to be included. The particular expansion of Charlotte makes me feel a bit uncomfortable because once you get past a certain period with the British Royal Family—or any royal family—slavery becomes an unavoidable reality.  Let's talk about it.
