For those who missed that last scene: Yesterday I saw a prompt to discuss what people think will happen on season 2 of Underground. My mind went in several different directions… Rosalee will be working as Harriet Tubman’s apprentice (for lack of a better word). I’m glad to know that Harriet is a character in…

In the past, I’ve been told it isn’t a good idea for me to write about about religion. But I can’t help it–I’m drawn to spirituality. It’s a huge part of people’s lives. Here in Canada, only 23.9 percent of the population claims to not have some sort of religious affiliation. Therefore, those who believe…

Here’s the latest episode of Claire.She.Goes. This time around, I talked to Paris, Ontario artist, Jennifer Budd.

If you missed the latest episode and don’t like spoilers, this isn’t the post for you. Most shows that cover serious subjects avoid giving children a lot to do. Certainly, when I’ve seen programs depict slavery, the majority of screen time is given to adult actors, while the kids appear merely for minutes, if not seconds. However…

I know, I know. Another piece on Sleepy Hollow‘s relationships. Sorry. After I asked about her, Jamie from Black Girl Nerds referred to Betsy Ross as “another Katrina”. Back in the day I’m pretty sure I snarked about her on Twitter. However in retrospect, I actually understood why Katrina existed. She was there from Sleepy Hollow’s…

The possibility of their paring isn’t the only reason I watch Sleepy Hollow, but I think it’s time I addressed the elephant in the room. ^From lissinator.tumblr.com. I’ve recently gotten caught up and watched every episode of Sleepy Hollow*. In my honest opinion Abbie’s scenes with Danny, and Crane’s scenes with Zoe aren’t believable. Their…

Dear Hollywood: When we look in the mirror, we expect an accurate reflection. Love, Inclusion

If ever I needed proof that Hollywood doesn’t understand audiences, this is it. This video has to be one of the most condescending things I’ve ever seen in my life. Every statement was…I don’t know. What’s the word for the intersection between a lie and an excuse? The title alone had me reeling. “If You’re…
