あらすじ・解説
"The Other Black Girl" was an EXTREMELY popular novel and TV series, and I usually stay away from things like that because me and popular don't have a very good relationship. But, my co-host Nicole is drawn to it. She is interested in uncovering how things become so popular and what makes audiences so interested.When we heard about "The Other Black Girl," we couldn't stay away! I was especially excited about a thriller based on a novel written by a Black woman, with a Black woman protagonist and antagonist. And, I'm super excited to share our conversation in this episode of Podcasting Is the New Kink!. Nicole and I analyze the book and series, noting the lack of character development, the importance of diverse representation in media, and much more.We talk:What drew us to the book and series - 7:07How we feel about things that are "popular" - 16:35Our protagonist, Nella - 23:39The lack of history for our Characters - 36:49Our antagonist, Hazel's hair - 46:22Budget and production - 54:54One question that kept coming up was, who was this for? Both the book and the series seemed to lack connection with the presumed audience, Black women. Stay tuned for more on this in the next episode of Podcasting Is the New Kink!
