The Twitch community. Spider-Man. Spyro the Dragon. Battlefield V. Star Wars. Bethseda and Sony at E3 2018. Edmonton Twitch gamer and representative Rebecca Deveau goes all in on her thoughts on the pop culture politics of representation in cinema and gaming, what it means to nurture and facilitate a community of nerds, and why we need to be unified more than ever as pop culture becomes more progressive with who it brings into the spotlight. REBECCA, AKA MOSTLYBEX, IS THE TWITCH QUEEN/OFFICIAL MAGICAL GIRL OF CANADA. YES, ALL OF CANADA.
