THEM

I feel compelled to highlight THEM, Amazon’s latest offering from Little Marvin and multi-hyphenate producer Lena Waithe. This inventive mesh of historical fare and heightened genre boasts excellent acting and top-notch production value while rightfully stirring controversy over its use of violence. I’m thankful for the thoughtful debate that has been brewing since the show’s release.. It’s certainly giving Hollywood a lot to think about when it comes to dramatizing POC suffering—and while I’m still forming my own opinion as I watch past the pilot episode, I’d encourage everyone to read up on how viewers are reacting to this one.
