oh my god, wait, hold the fucking phone…

Playboy. Playboy is the magazine you guys are looking for. Playboy.

You're welcome, and I apologize for the rage I dished out below, but please understand how exhausting it can be to hear these things come from all sides and just want people to understand the 'why'

So, now that we are 5 years out from the release with regularly held festivals for it every year all over Toronto, maybe get someone else to watch it and give it a new grade? C+ is wholly inaccurate, especially if the community votes are taken into account.

doesn't make them any less native. Many native people appear white. Redefine your expectations about "what indians look like" before you talk about it.

i;ve been raging over the hypocrisy since last night

go read something written by a *GASP* actual Native person on this thing

You know what? Fuck you dude. I'm a native american, I GET to tell you why your white guilt over that storyline is misplaced and ridiculous. She missed the ENTIRE POINT, REPEATEDLY and clearly you did to. I'm all for the SJW shit, but fucking do it where it matters.

HA! Okay. Sure. But Dong being a vietnamese played by a korean speaking with a chinese accent was worthy of heavy criticism, right?

oh scroll down a bit more and you can find my big yell-y rant about everything lol

yeah back in episode 3 I definitely commented, but at that point I couldn't talk about how things came full circle, so I just said something like "Just wait… This whole thing is there for a reason and it will come to light in the end" but I am crushingly disappointed that our reviewer didn't even bother to talk about

Where is all the Righteous Indignation and White Guilt about them casting a Comanche (Gil Birmingham) and a Cherokee (Sheri Foster) as a Lakota couple?

because dammit, she missed the point so much. the reviewer got sooooo hung up on the white-washing aspect of it that she didn't even look for anything good, and there was soooo much good.

I ranted in a huge way about all of the native stuff below, thanks for posting links

I'm pissed because I am native and you guys repeatedly miss the entire point. It is absolutely a joke, but it's a meaningful joke. The whole idea of passing is a very real thing i tribal culture. I am able to "pass" and have been told others are jealous of me, and that I have no opinion because of it. Find me a show

okay how about if it comes from a Cherokee? She needs to let the lakota storyline go. It's not at all a big deal, would be a fuckton more racist if they cast a native american in the role and actually physically white-washed her, and is one of the most authenti plots involving native americans i've ever seen on

the discussion is absolutely important, but she doesn't discuss it at all. So many wonderful things happened in this episode with the Lakota storyline, and every single one of them was glossed over in the review in favor of, ONCE AGAIN, coming down on the white woman aspect of it all. I've also recently learned that

yeah except for those pesky native american writers bringing a level of authenticity to that entire plotline, i'm sure you're right. /sarcasm

in regards to the David Duchovney thing though…

also, Daniel Day Lewis is a METHOD actor. Meaning he embodies his role from the time he gets it until shooting is done, which leads to some pretty great/terrible stories from the set
