It's our second Race in SPOP talk with Head Sorceress Shawn! Topics include race in trauma narratives, the social construction of "the other" in Western tropes, how anti-Asian bigotry and the stereotype of the "model minority" plays into fandom perceptions & judgements of Glimmer, and how white men with dreads are the absolute worst-- EVEN IN SPACE.

Tasty links!!!
