So tired of fantasy shows ie., Game Of Thrones, Lord Of The Rings, based on analogs of medieval Europe. That’s why I LOVE #TheBraveOnes on Netflix. An African fantasy series based on African Mythology and centering Africans in the modern era. It’s terrific with production value that is off the charts! FINALLY. https://www.netflix.com/us/title/81151771

@eosfpodcast> So tired of fantasy shows... based on analogs of medieval EuropeSame, and randomly parachuting non-white actors into them really doesn't address the problem.> That’s why I LOVE The Brave Ones... An African fantasy series based on African MythologyI really enjoyed Kingdom, the zombie series set in Joseon dynasty Korea. A feudal era fantasy, drawing on a whole different cultural aesthetic, and no white actors shoehorned in as a token hand-wave at diversity. Great stuff.
