WE(nerd)lesque Roundtable: WE on THEM (Session 1, Part 2)

Session 1, part 2: WE on THEM

The latest in black trauma drama is the limited series THEM, created by Little Marvin and executive produced by Lena Waithe. It is available on Amazon Prime Video, and is set in a somewhat supernatural version of the 1950s. This series was largely criticized by the Black community for its unrelenting plot points that all involve Black people suffering. WE discuss the problematic elements, and the age-old question of "Who is this for?" PLUS, other properties the guests recommend instead, and what they hope from an industry that brought us Lovecraft Country, Get Out, and Us, but has taken a step backwards.
