    Everyone is rightly talking about The Secret Garden, a novel explicitly about colonialist racism, but *many* of those books are subtextually or textually racialized. I think it's important to study them that way—and these covers are setting up one hell of a bait and switch.

    It's such a fundamental misunderstanding of the way whiteness has been historically constructed and the way race was written about prior to the past century!! (This particularly angers me as someone who focused on postcolonial analysis of Victorian literature in college....)

    What's not mentioned in here, though highlighted in the press release I received, is how they picked these titles: they used ~AI~ to scour a corpus of 100+ books to determine whether or not the protagonist was explicitly described as white, and if they weren't, they went to town!

    I can't stop thinking about this intro from a 90's Finnish TV show about politics

    The details of Shadow's epic fail keep getting worse. They deployed the Android app through a free version of TestFairy, which caps the number of users at 200.

    Wait... the company behind the Democrat's app is called "Shadow, Inc." Are they the villains in a children's cartoon?

    So, I think from now on, I am going to demand proof of how an English character crossed the channel and got anywhere on the Continent. IMPOSSIBLE!!!!!

    It's amazing to me that some viewers will see a Silk Road adventure picture and accept a western European in China (5000 mile journey) but the idea of an African character in Europe (the Strait of Gibraltar is 9 miles wide) is just a horrible stretch of the imagination.

    Endlessly amusing to me that opera is more accessible to the average person than Broadway musicals are. You can see the hit new productions of many operas, (including many new works) live, in movie theatres and here’s Hamilton years after the fact acting like a Silicon Valley CEO

    It’s a generous portion of Dunkirk! has a great point about the marketing similarities between the films despite them being very different.
