In the
#HungerGames, the whites might as well have been singing a song about strange fruit. It's that appropriative. -
#HungerGames: white people imagine to be in struggle like black people actually are. With the convenience of no real black characters. -
There are many more fuct examples about race in the
#HungerGames, but I'll leave it at that for now. Let's get to the misogyny. -
In the
#HungerGames, the resistance--which doesn't define its aims--tricks that little white girl Katniss into being their front. -
In the
#HungerGames, the resistance is like she's cute, white, smart and good with a bow and arrow. Get her. -

#HungerGames is creating, then I'm not down. Fuck that. -
