#Yellowjackets Lisa & Akilah are written horribly. I'm used to black characters in these majority white shows being written in ways that don't resemble black people anywhere at anytime. But the lack of depth and development for a couple who take up so much screentime is horrible
*Taissa*
Even in 2022 "prestige tv" tokenism is still present. You have a happily married black lesbian couple, where Taissa is running for office...And NO discussion of race, gender of sexuality? She doesn't meet w/ local LGBTQA groups? Or Black organizations? It's ludicrous
The way they interact with thier son also makes no sense. I get there's a mystery he sees but the dialog between these black mothers is like something out of #AndJustLikeThat and that's not a good thing
