Vice – Politics In Pop Culture
The reality that the movie suggests is that boring, monotone white men have been putting us to sleep on TV while throwing around their considerable weight behind the scenes…
The Trial of the Chicago 7
Being so singularly focused can be dangerous, we all know this. When we get tunnel vision we exclude a lot of other factors that are important to a healthy society. But what do you do when everyone else is so singularly focused that they ignore the things that matter to you, like equal rights and soldiers dying by the hundreds in a pointless war? If everyone seems to be looking everywhere but at the injustice it can start to feel like your duty is to be singularly focused until enough people are looking in your direction.
Deep Blue Sea Subverts Expectations
I don’t even include character names in this post, because they’re really not necessary. Read about LL Cool J and The Punisher and learn why 90 minutes is the perfect length.
Legally Blonde and Feminism

As the camera zooms out we see the chairs are gone and Fat is behind him, interrupting him to say “yeah yeah, look”.
Sexism and Racism Parallel Journeys in Master of None
Dev and I’s experiences are similar because we hear one antidote and our world is shattered when we realize that it’s not just one story, but an epidemic.
Big Chick Energy – Support WAP
Men are always acquainted with their genitalia. It hangs out where they can always see it and know what it’s up to. For women, our pleasure centers, the powerhouse organ that can DELIVER HUMAN LIFE, is tucked away.
The Jurassic Franchise
A glorious thing happened, almost by accident, when I made the decision to start at the sequel rather than start at the beginning.
Vanderpump Rules and My White Guilt
I try to slip my 2015 goggles on and see why this wasn’t problematic at the time, but I can’t. Because 2015 was only five years ago. It was 150 years after slavery was abolished and they couldn’t muster up a single storyline for a black woman.
