Episode 156 - Mulan
from Swords and Satire
What does it mean to be a man? Who do you see when you look in the mirror? Is it who you expect to see? This week we cover Mulan, the classic fantasy tale that unintentionally supports trans rights as human rights, while breaking down the binary gender roles in a fun and whimsical way. This movie is also ripe for discussion about problematic cultural representation and dehumanizing of the other. It contains multitudes, as do we all. (intro skit sounds obtained from Zapsplat.com)
