In this video, I wanted to look at the reviews of the new game, Forspoken; more specifically, the commentary around and critiques of Frey, the protagonist. So much of the response to her, I would suggest, has been based in anti-Blackness, and I want to challenge us to get beyond "liking" (or not) these characters and being more introspective about what causes us to be uncomfortable or comfortable with characters...what structures how we think about characters, stories, worlds, and people.
In 2023, we will be beginning communal study sessions...be sure to join us via patreon! Become a patron and an architect of some Blackly Imaginative spaces where I share the resources I'm reading, and where we can engage in communal study, imagining, and creating:
