i feel like Queenie's character should have stayed single at the end of the tv series. she spent months obsessing over Tom then participating in hook up culture, and when she finally goes to therapy, she's only been truly single for a couple of months and gets into another relationship. I agree with you; the series just had her centering men again.
The discussion around racialised trauma is SO important but I hear it talked about so rarely. I saw a black girl on a dating app saying "sorry, no black guys, it's a trauma thing." And I do wonder how often it's a part of people's choices to date exclusively interracially. I certainly have a black female friend with a traumatic childhood who only seems to date white guys. Absolutely no judgement from me by the way. But I've always wondered to what extent this operates in people. And it applies to all sides really. Do certain white people who don't date white people do so always for fetishism? Or are there some who do so because of trauma? Honestly I'd love to see more discussions of that and how to navigate it because we only ever talk about interracial dating through the lenses of fetishism or internalised racism.
Hi! Great video as always! Will you make a video on “lion”, a book turned movie? I haven’t watched the movie but I’ve read the book and it’s beautiful! Highly recommend.
Even if you have good relationships with some people looking like the ones you got a blocage with you can still have the issue I think it's compartmentalization. It's a lil weird but my mind just compared that to the "I got a black friend" people 💀.

That last bit about chaannel 4 shows... As a black brit, tell me about it lmaooo our programming stays cutting other voices short
lol I didn’t want to offend anyone but it definitely feels like it has to be as palatable as possible(for non black people)
I warmed up to the book & loved the show. Thanx 4 this 😊
F.Y.I you are right about the show lacking the level of depth that the book has.
The lack of depth probably makes it more enjoyable on some level. Like I said I left smiling
Hi, could you do The sun is also a star?
@@OOoKarmaoOO yes, added to my list!
