      So I saw the #HungerGames and it was shitty.

      For starters, if you get to write about an imaginary world, why do you get to write black people out of it? #HungerGames

      The #HungerGames can only add people of color as tertiary characters. Why?

      Philip Seymour Hoffman wasn't part of the first #HungerGames but got added in the second and played a big roll in the third. Because white.

      Someone is tweeting me that #HungerGames the movie is leaving characters of color from the book out. So it's deliberate racism.

      But you know what really gets me? The little white girl in it sings a song called The Hanging Tree in the #HungerGames.

          Eventually, a ton of white people are signing a sad song about a tree on which they hang people. #HungerGames

          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.

          The resistance straight kidnapped Katniss for their revolution in which kidnapping little white girls is apparently ok. #HungerGames

          Like, if women can get kidnapped in the new world the resistance in the #HungerGames is creating, then I'm not down. Fuck that.

          We know that the capital is bad and makes people play these games of death for fun. Fuck is the #HungerGames resistance doing different?

          @aurabogado I had the same thought when I saw that scene. It was just too similar in content and vibe to Strange Fruit to not feel like...oh

          @aurabogado Shit, they even whitened the main character, who in the book is described as having a dark olive complexion.

          @aurabogado Katniss's ethnicity in book is uclear - described as "olive-skinned." Movies did a lot of white-washing :/
