#231 Trauma Porn XXX
Queen & J. are two womanist race nerds talking liberation, politics, and pop-culture over tea. Drink up!
On this episode… What is trauma porn? Are you into it? Is the film industry capitalizing on our pain or telling it like it is? When is it educational and when is it just Black misery for misery’s sake.
This week’s hotlist - Vagina workshops, surviving the holidays, candy we hate, then we get into the sh!ts and talk about films/tv that leverage trauma for good or evil with NO SPOILERS - Queen & Slim, The Watchmen on HBO, Rosewood, The Color Purple, Fruitvale Station, 12 Years A Slave - What does victory look like in films about our pain, is victory important, Black trauma in fiction, historical fiction & what takes priority when telling our stories, erasure of Black fiction narratives, is “post-Ferguson” a film genre, a variety of triggers for a variety of Black folks because we are not a monolith, and mad other shit!
