Representation Will Not Save You

from Contextless · host Fernando Martinez

Please consider donating to, volunteering with, or learning about Red Canary Song, the only grassroots Chinese massage parlor worker coalition in the U.S. 'Tis Spring! Spring has sprung and so have we! We're back with an all new episode recapping the biggest pieces of culture in the past few weeks. Including the Oprah Winfrey interview with Prince Harry and Megan Markle ("Were you silent? Or were you silenced?"), the Grammys (I am the fourth Haim sister), and this year's Oscar nominations (In the immortal words of Bong Jung-ho, the Oscars are local). We also delve into the whole "representation matters" discussion and I recommend some films I recently watched. Enjoy! Mentioned article in this episode: "Acting Black and White Onscreen" by Hilton Als, The New Yorker Recommended films: "Christine" (2016) (Available on Netflix) "What She Said: The Life of Pauline Cael" (2020) (Available on Amazon Prime)
