A few weeks ago, multiple folks linked to the race issue related to the casting of the Avatar movie. Namely, that all the Asian characters had been cast with white actors. My son is a huge fan of the cartoon series, and he asked me, confused and unhappy, how something like this was possible. I didn't have a good answer ( Read more... )

Now that's two I owe you, for Limb and now for this, which made me think and made me sad and made me happy and made me so grateful to have you in my life.

How about if I just spend the rest of my life paying you back?

OTAY IT IS A DATE.

One day we will be old ladies who can no longer see the computer screen BUT WE WILL STILL PINCH THE NURSES AND I WILL STILL LOVE YOU.

Oh, this is so good, Kita -- it's arresting, thought provoking and so, so smart. Really well handled and put together. You did great work threading together the links between outright racist images and more insidious/subtle racist depictions. I'll definitely be rewatching this soon.

Thank you, honey!!! This entire enterprise was a huge learning curve. When I get a better version available, I'll let you know.

In the mean time, I'm really glad it worked for you.

Thank you so much for letting me know.

I'm still reeling from the dish ad.

...if you upload this to ficbitch, please let me know. I want to watch the good quality version many times. Thanks for making a strong, beautiful vid.

OMG I got vid fb from LUMINOSITY. *G*

Hey, how do I make a better version available? Do I just upload it to ficbitch in Quicktime format, and then it's there for people to watch?

Yep, but include instructions like "right-click the link and select 'save as.'"

I had no idea you could vid.

I'm impressed with both the talent and the content.

kita0610 January 15 2009, 22:46:03 UTC

I still don't think I can vid. I can put images together though, apparently. :)

Thank you very much for your feedback.
