Members Faulkner Posted April 15, 2021 Author Members Share Posted April 15, 2021 (edited) I’m assuming you didn’t watch Them? I was aghast when I read what happens in that show. No way am I going there... Edited April 15, 2021 by Faulkner 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted April 15, 2021 Members Share Posted April 15, 2021 Nope! Wasn't touching that. There are so many things to write about. Lovecraft Country was great (sans the finale) but I just don't wish to watch black folks in pain and suffering 24/7. Bridgerton was a great escape from that and there are tons of other stories to tell, that have been told and are being told. WTF was Lena doing here? I won't be watching anymore slave sh!t that is written for the sake of showing how black people have suffered at the hands of whites. That's ongoing. Don't need 1,000 films/tv shows about it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted April 15, 2021 Author Members Share Posted April 15, 2021 There’s so many more coming too. I always wanted an adaptation of Octavia Butler’s Kindred, which is a sci-fi time-travel novel about slavery that I read in college. But now that there’s an actual adaptation of it coming in the next year or so, ugh, now I don’t want it. We don’t need 50,000 slave narratives. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
