‼️ So, I'm reading an LA Times article on the "white savior" trope in Hollywood films and TV. The writer was going down the list, and at every entry I nodded "yep, yep, oh yeah." Then the writer got to the last one: Game Of Thrones.
Wut? Again, as our GoT expert and doyenne, did you notice this?
I'm not as experted as @kenc313 is but it does have that problem.
Daenyrs is white and saves Missandie (sp?) who is black. And then there's the Unsullied guy, the boyfriend of Missandie, who is also black and is also "liberated." I can't remember if all of the Unsullied are POC.
Wowzers. Thanks, both of you. I really have to watch it now as sociology as much as entertainment.
