1. I promise I will answer any question sent to me on Twitter in the next 24 hours, so let's be friends and come follow me there! twitter.com/TimHickson1 2. What is your favourite Katara moment in her story and why? Mine is the Southern Raiders because I see it as the pinnacle of mature storytelling in ATLA (see my video on the Cycle of War). Stay nerdy, and thanks to all my Patreon patrons who make this longer form content possible :D ~ Tim

Favorite Katara moment she isnt even talking in the scene. It's when Sokka is explaining to Toph that Katara has always been there for him so much that when he tries to remember his mom, Katara's face is all he can see.

Not really since Katara looks like a spitting image of their mother. Also it;s not an age thing, she's a motherly figure no matter how old she is. After their mother died not only did Sokka have to step up as a man, Katara had to step up as the motherly/healing position. Neither of them are old enough to remember their mother.

You can honestly say the same for someone like Iroh. From a distance he seems like just a funny mentor with a good heart, but if you look closer, you see a man who lost his son, trying to make up for all his misdeeds in the past. Similar to Katara who looks like just a normal nice girl with a little attitude from a distance. But I’m reality is a girl stricken with grief and hatred towards a nation that has been destroying her life since she was a little girl. A girl who grew up fearing the fire nation and its presence, but ultimately one of the key components to taking it down.

Katara and Aangs friendship and relationship gave me a standard for what I like. They’re so kind, patient, understanding and compassionate. Even when one acts up or needs help the other is there to balance them. I’m so glad I had the privilege of growing up on this cartoon: I rewatched it on Netflix and the ending scene made me cry. I had the most intense feeling welled up in my chest. Just pure happiness. Pure love. I miss that, and rewatching it reminded me of what I value in a partner and a person. Thank you Avatar the Last Airbender 🙏🏽

i'm genuinely just curious, i understand the Aang part of the equation, but when has Aang helped Katara calm down when she "acts up" as you said? i can't recall. just when she insulted Pakku, and when she blamed Toph. both times Aang told Pakku/Toph "she didn't mean that". so i'm not sure if i'm missing something...
@mrgassmask
@mrgassmask 3 года назад
@@vic3041 In terms of "acting up" I guess katara doesn't really have those moments. But for the sake of the point, when Katara is blood thirsty for revenge, Aang tries to let calm her down and show her that revenge isn't the right option. Even though Katara didn't calm down/ listen in that moment he tried to calm her down, but everything he said did hit her in the moment she had the choice to kill the man who killed her mother. She literally did what he said "let your anger out and then let it go." Writing this out makes me realize how Aang knew what Katara needed to get her catharsis, VS how Zuko was more so fueling her blood thirsting nature with the situation (and if she did kill that man I have a feeling Katara would've went on to regret it to some degree). Also not that you're saying this (at least I don't think you are) but even though there may be a lack of times Aang got opportunities to calm Katara down they still balance each other and bring the best out of each other. Perhaps later Aang got more chances to help out an "acting up" Katara but also Katara is probably one of the most grounded members of the group also is the most nurturing one out of the group. ( sorry for the long reply :D )

One thing I like about these comics is Sokka’s reaction to the technological advancements. As opposed to Katara, he’s excited about the possibilities. Perhaps because he relates to people like Satoru and Maliq as non benders. He was never attached to the idea of bending like Katara was since he’s not a bender. Thoughts?
@littenfire3563
@littenfire3563 3 года назад
That's basically it. That's also why Sokka liked the mechanist adding technology to one of the Air temples and as shown in that episode with the Mechanist's son, tehnology gives Non-benders abilities that can rival benders, making them more equal. Just like how the Mechanist's son could then fly in the air just like the air nomads.

I can relate heavily to Katara. I am the oldest in my family, and one of the handful of people left who knows how to make and prepare one dish my mother's Tribe traditionally ate in the spring and summer My grandma was the one who taught me, and had planned to teach me more. But then she died... On my father's side, only a few of us still make and prepare porcupine quill jewellery and embroidery in the traditional manner. My paternal grandmother has an exhibit in the Smithsonian, and passed before I was born. Yet. I am meant to continue living in this modern world. Holding onto the tiniest scraps of information I have been given, from my parents people's, and the effects of colonization and efforts to have us assimiliate. Its something I struggle with. How much to keep, how much to let go...

There are honestly just so many great Katara moments throughout the series. 1. Katara calming Aang out of the Avatar State for the first time in The Southern Air Temple. 2. Her fight against Pakku where, despite her inexperience, holds her own quite well against a master like Pakku. 3. Her completely wrecking every single student in Pakku's class. 4. Her fight with Zuko as she's protecting Aang when he's in the Spirit World. 5. Her calming Aang out of the Avatar State (again) in The Desert. 6. The entirety of The Southern Raiders 7. Outsmarting Azula 8. Threatening to kill Zuko if he ever betrays them or hurts Aang.

@@chipperdrewski I'm not sure I can chalk the Sokka and Toph talk as a Katara moment, as Katara, while present, doesn't do anything except listen, and they don't even know she's there. Yes, they do talk about her, very highly and it does speak a lot about her character, but I mainly considered actions or moments she was directly involved in. And while a satisfying end to the series (and a personal favorite of mine if not for the sole purpose of it pissing off Zutarians), again, I'm not sure I can put that as a solely Katara moment, even if she does initiate the kiss.

I have two moments if you don't mind. The Painted Lady: Katara felt so strongly about saving the village in that river that she was willing to risk jeopardizing Sokka's plan to help them. In the end, the spirit she impersonated even came out to thank Katara. Katara vs. Azula: What I loved so much about this was that Katara didn't win through brute strength, she won through really creative thinking. It was a huge gamble to pull off against an insane firebending during an event where firebending is enhanced, but it pulled off.

When I was much younger and when I originally watched Avatar, I remember always feeling pangs of hurt when I watched that scene. As a kid, I never saw my father much and as such I couldn't ever really remember what he was like even though we lived in the same apartment. We slept in the same room even and yet, I couldn't ever remember what my father looked like. He woke up before I did and left before I woke up. When I got home from school, he wouldn't be home either. I just had the house key so I could get into the house after he left again. My mother was always busy working so I could never fault her. My father however, didn't work and yet he was always gone. He would always be at a relative's house or just out on a walk and yet he was never home. Now that he is older I get to see him more and we've bonded so to speak. Yet, if someone was to ask what my father looked like when I was in my early teens and younger? I wouldn't have remembered what his face looked like. Albeit after all this time, I still remember the first person to treat me like a son. I only knew him for a year before his death but I remember his face better than I could ever remember my actual father's. It has been over ten years since he died but I still remember him better. Funny how that is. It's funny in a slightly dark way how two people could have such different thoughts on their fathers. My condolences.

Katara was amazing, she was determined to learn water bending and never wavered. She's so underrated, if it wasn't for her getting angry at Sokka after he made a sexist comment "Leave up to a girl to screw things up" in the beginning of Book one, then her emotional outburst would've never happened and she wouldn't have freed Aang from the iceberg. This girl is so strong willed, started out as a timid girl who was the only waterbender in her tribe who self taught herself the basics and grows tremendously throughout the series. She learned defense, combative, healing and many other tricks that aided Team Avatar. Without her, Aang would've died in the end of Book 3, she legit saved the world with her courage, love and dedication to bringing peace. She deserves a damn statue dedicated to her in Legend Of Korra. This fierce woman is a warrior, mother, sister and a loveable character who inspires a lot.

Being loyal to the Fire Nation to her was no in conflict with her eathr bending roots. It was more so with the idea that an earth bender should be loyal to the Earth Kingdom which is not neccesarly true. I would even argue for their independence at this point they were not Fire Nation or Earth Kingdom but they created their own identity, culture, political system and even economical resoruces not found anywhere else. But to her she was a citizen of the Fire Nation that happened to be an Earth Bender.

She grew up in a Fire Nation household, living under the law of the Fire Lord. This was also in one of the earlier colonies, the ones established decades before the extermination of the Air Nomads. (The 100 Year War was actually closer to 150 years long, but round numbers are catchier.) The prohibition on earthbending we see in newer colonies or more recently conquered territories simply isn't present because you have earthbenders being born to loyal colonial Fire Nation families. Most, or anyone, in those early colonies who are of Former Earth Kingdom ethnicity are loyal to the Fire Nation, largely because any disloyalty would have been removed several generations ago. They would also have a degree of loyalty because that's how they grew up, in the localised peace after the war moved on from conquering their part of the world. Most of them would simply be loyal to their city and province, which is part of the Fire Nation, therefore they are loyal to the Fire Nation. There is also the factor that the Earth Kingdom does not having the same level of cultural homogeneity as the other Nations or even the same level of baseline loyalty to it's central government. This is discussed in examining the worldbuilding of the Earth Kingdom and how extreme their decentralisation of governance is. This is so extreme that there is no uniform judicial system between provinces and even a second Earth King in Omashu who's "kingship" over that province isn't challenged by the Earth King in Ba Sing Sae, who himself only appears to have direct control over the province of Ba Sing Sae. The Earth Kingdom as seen during the time of AtLA is by no means a unified kingdom, which considerably lowers the bar for changing loyalty away from it.

The political definition usually describes a sort of 'Adversarial tribal exceptionalism'. eg: "My Nation is beset upon by outsiders wanting to take our land and destroy our customs" "Our way of life is a shining example to the world of what true morality and virtue looks like." And, "Though we must sometimes dirty our hands with bloodshed, OUR battles are defending the righteous path and saving those among other cultures who could be good people but haven't had the chance to know our Way" This almost inevitably becomes a Religious, Ethnic and Linguistic identity issue (which was closer to the meaning of the word Nation than the modern Country/Nationstate) Even if the original rallying point was neutral in that sense, like 'Christendom' usually meaning 'Europe' or even less inherently exclusive, the Declaration of Independence and Bill of Rights being viewed as an explicitly *Anglo-Saxon Protestant* point of pride. Traditional Nationalism can get worrisome in the best cases because it focuses on the idea of historic struggle between one particular identity and its neighbors, almost always as a zero-sum game. The true horrors come when Nationalism surges in a place with several otherwise-integrated populations, who may have viewed themselves as a single tribe until a new or resurgent 'National Identity' becomes important. That's when concepts like purity and traitors take center stage. The revised concept; eg: "I am proud of my people and my history." "I feel camaraderie with other citizens of my Nation-State and I support our collective fortunes." "We of this region or territory are all in this together" That is not a bad thing at all. It can sometimes morph into bad things, like traditional Nationalism, but it's fundamentally uplifting and interweaving for the people who feel it with one another. Traditionally this would be more associated with "Patriotism" If you mean the second concept, nothing at all is wrong with that save for the risk of certain mutations of that feeling to guard against. People who have problems with Patriotism are usually concerned with the actions of a particular government or believe that territorial identities need to be broken down in order to prevent War or alleviate suffering over resources. When people online talk about 'Globalists' they usually mean these folks The people who get disturbed when you bring up Nationalism as a good or neutral concept are using the *first* definition. To them it seems like you're predicting/advocating a "Clash of Civilizations" where certain Religions, Languages or Ethnic Groups, (even if it starts as "citizens of a country) are inherently adversaries and need to seek the destruction or subjugation of other groups that *MIGHT* pose some threat. I hope that makes sense. A lot of political conversation has been corrupted these days by contrary definitions and total misunderstanding. (even if they would have disagreed regardless it matters we know where our disagreement actually exists ^_^) Do keep an eye out though for certain people trying to confuse the two ideas. There has been a deliberate push to confuse "Nationalist" ideas and policies as "Patriotic" ones to make people who are proud of their country and history feel attacked for that by having them use a word that *feels* no different. Thus understandably pushing them toward people with darker ideas for support against the apparent unfair backlash over their benign and reasonable feelings.

Well, the comics literally make Katara, Aang, and Toph go way OOC. For one, Aang allows himself to kill Zuko if he turns too much into the fire lord, which seems stupid to me especially considering that he wouldn't even kill Ozai. Katara just follows Aang around and doesn't get to become her own character until North and South, and I wouldn't necessarily blame their relationship, rather I blame the writers. Plus, Toph says that she needs a minute to breathe. WTF. Toph is the greatest earthbender alive and she can't hold her stance for a minute? I hated some of these comics for ruining some of my favorite characters in media

DELETED ACCOUNT I think the graphic novels actually work out pretty well as a little bridge between tlok and atla because in the sequel we didn’t learn nearly enough about what happened with the old gang. But in the novels at some point almost every main character got their own little story and in the tales and adventure ones we even got to learn more about some more miniscule characters but yeah they was definitely on something when they made toph stop and catch her breath Lmaoo and Aang and Katara’s relationship just reminds me of middle/ high school puppy love which I guess in a way it was lol. The promise that Aang made I think heavily relied on Roku and him still being pressed over his mistakes in his lifetime and Aang didn’t want to make the same mistake and possibly cause another war but in the end knew that Zuko would never turn out like his father or grandfather.

The mischaracterization at parts is what makes the comics unreadable for me; while the themes and handling of some of them are pretty good, I've tried reading some and the characters just seem off. Of course they change over the course of the show, but there are definitely moments where it feels the writers weren't true to the characters we see in the show, making their actions and manerisms in the comics seem odd.

@dustboots 5 лет назад
This really made me think about the role of power (literal, in this case) when it comes to tradition. To Katara, her bending defines her, and that ability in turn defines her to her world and her people. But someone like Sokka, does not have access to that same cultural identifier, and one wonders how much that would change his perspective on what makes his culture unique. If it is water-bending, above all else, that defines a person from the Southern Water Tribe, how then do those without that talent define themselves within their culture? Bending may be more elegant, but it is also inaccessible to a large portion of the population, through no fault or lack of will of their own. Doesn't it add in a bit of an odd dynamic when those who benefit most from the "new" ways are also those who historically had the least access to the "power" of the old? And is that a subversion of our world, where so often those who already have power are positioned to best exploit the new ways of the world?

Katara did have a good stance on things because we know later on in the Korra series that the sacred Southern Water Tribe rites that had been forgotten due to the war and industrial development of the tribe ever since had left their local spirits dissatisfied and turning dark and malicious, which spilled out with horrible consequences by the time Korra was an adult.

The "modernization" of the Southern Water Tribe (and many real life native tribes) is rather interesting. You've giving a culture technology hundreds of years ahead of their own, without giving their culture and way of life time to naturally integrate it into how they do things. Their being told how it should be done, without being able to develop their own way. Is it wrong to withhold the technology that would unquestionably improve their way of life? Or is it wrong to risk destroying their cultural identity with technology they aren't culturally ready for?

Think of it like this. Say the Aztec empire never fail and continue to this day. There's that chance they would have kept up with the rest of the world and the same people who cut off people's heads to please the sun would suddenly have air planes and working toliets. But there that chance that they wouldn't they would continue to follow their culture even to this day. Which makes them more easier to attack and destoy. With people like Napoleon and Hitler coming along 200-400 years after they orginaly fail. The heavy advancement in tech would cause the Aztecs to fall anyways. It was the differences between the Aztec empire and the Spanish that caused them to fall in the first place. The only way the Aztec empire Could have surrived even bigger invasion forces and or new morden equipment they would have to modernize themselves. Firstly the military so they stand a chance at fighting Back but doing this they will see how easier it is to do things in the new morden way. They would start to import these methods into non military things and before you know it their customs and culture would be lost all because of the fear that someone would march on their doorstep. The Aztec empire surviving would also change many events here in the states. With the war we fought with the Mexicans that gave us multiple states the Aztec empire would still fight but if they were just as militaryly advanced as when Cortez showed up that war would have ended differently. It was thanks to Mexico being what it was that gave them that fighting chance. Fighting the US would result in the Same thing Cortez did. Expect giving that the Mexican American war was a little over a years ago the Aztec culture wouldn't be as lost as it is to day. To answer your question. It honestly depends if your culture and way of life preventing you from having the ability to fight back and risk the destruction of your own people than you would have to stop and think about what's more important a culture without people to embrace it or living people with a lost culture? In this moment modernizing and being able to fight to defend not only home but your culture is the only way you can preserve it. It's sometimes best to live to see another day than to fight and no one live at all. The way to keep your culture alive is to teach it to the young so that people who prefer using Machines to wash their clothes can do but people who still liking Washing their clothes in the lake can do so as well. Let people have the option to embrace the culture they know or the ways of the morden world. To answer your last question let's use the Aztec empire again. Again they stood tall to the day but they keep their way of life and culture. One day say the us trys introducing these people a cell phone. Just the shock of the cell phone doing all the things it would do would cause Angy amount them. Those who want to give the modem ways a try and those who don't. This would cause in fighting and perhaps war. The Aztec empire went from what Mexico is now to where Nevada is and all the land in-between. And we are lead to believe even spreading to the other nation's in central America. The answer to your question depends on the location of the less developed culture in question with the US still being bordered to the Aztec empire the Aztec people will be aware of such things like planes or cars Because they would see and hear them. They would live as the Amish do aware of the morden world but choosing to live by their lifestyle and way of life. Forcing the change would damage them while them slowly learning about it and adjusting to themselves is a whole different story.

I actually see some relevancy of katara's story in america. Because i'm familiar with it, I'l give the basics. It can be synonymous with the Native American removal, and cultural "integration." Many constantly feared for their families, most lost some, like katara with her mother. Many thought of the Native American people as brutish, simple, and lesser, despite the fact that they had intricate cultural heritages, beautiful art, and an intimate spiritual connection, all of which are similar in Avatar's southern water tribe. The north can be a metaphor for the rich and wealthy oil men and natives, who decided to take more land for their own gain. The only saving grace is that we are now making up for this, trying to preserve the native culture and trying to find the dying arts of their heritage. This is so similar to the story of Katara, it hurts. I just realized it when he mentioned Oil, as that was one of the biggest drives for the second wave of American expansion.

The conflict of culture and the modern world hits very close to home. My people.... I can sympathize with Katara with how she feels she is losing her culture. How she feels like a part of her people was fading away. My people, my culture, is one that is fading. One that is dying due to multiple reasons. We've become just another 'American-asian' instead of who we were. Our tales, our history, our legends. All of these things fade and die because they have no place in the modern world. Our children do not speak our native tongue. Our brothers and sisters do not know of our history nor do they care for it. Our aunts and uncles pretend it never existed. Our fathers and mothers do not teach us of it either. For us, only our elderly know of it yet, in this modern world, they have no place in it. Our elderly are dying from age, neglect, or had simply been left behind. There are aspects of our culture that deserve to die. Yet, I see our people being simply absorbed by the world. Our language is dying, our culture is forgotten, our history had never truly been written fully. In my generation alone, less than half of our people my age actually speak our language and most of those of us who do not speak our language do not even understand our language either. We've all but lost our written language as well. We have adapted to the world and yet, those who can read our language in the younger generations that I am part of, are few and far between. In my family that I am related to in blood, I am the last of those that has learned how to read and write it in the last handful of years. _*"What is the point of learning a language that is dying when English is so much more universal"*_. In my extended family, I only know of a few others who are in the younger generation that both read and write our language. However, even in one of the older generations, they do not know how to read our language, nor write it. All of my friends that are my age of my people, can not read the language. Most of them do not even speak it. Their siblings do not understand it. They know nothing of our culture nor of our beliefs. When we tried to tell the more 'modern' of us of our religion, of who we were, they called us 'hellspawn' and 'demon worshippers.' We are of *_blood_* and yet the treat us so. They told us we were wrong in our ways and sought to correct it. There are indeed problems in our culture, parts that would be considered barbaric in modern society, yet it should at least be remembered so we do not make the same mistake ever again. As a child, I remember the curses the more modern of us threw at us and it has stayed with me since. They often say that our language was useless, they it was a waste, that we should not teach it to our children, that *_English_* was the better answer, that only knowing it was better than our mother tongue. I often hear of the younger generations and a few of those that are my generation and slightly older, shouting of pride in our culture, yet what pride is there to be had? Our culture permeates distrust and spreads the message of hatred across several generations. They know _NOTHING_ of our culture and yet they have the nerve to shout of pride? I know about the conflict of modernization and culture quite well. It is one that I have lived and breathed all of my life. It is one that I live with every day.

Where most Tlingits who are fully understanding in our way of life, refuse to share as opposed to those that don't know and just don't care because we're just trying to keep up with the rest of the world with "memes and vines" and just ridiculous social interactions as such. What I hate is how many of these shows that represent Alaskan Natives, its only the Athabaskan, yupiks chupiks and so on that are sharing theirs and are vastly more represented being the face of Alaska even though Tlingits had so much power. So with that, why I always get bummed out, not over the misrepresentation of Natives, but the reason behind the misunderstanding because I know if only one my elders spoke over the specifics in our culture I'm sure our amazing Traditions would be shared further and ensured a future.

The Tlingit's are closer in culture to the Indigenous tribes and clans in western Canada. It's too bad that the Alsakan panhandle became part of the US as Alaska probably wouldn't have been as colonized as it is without access to the lush Tlingit territory. I'm Tsimshian and the reason why our nation formed was to build alliances to repel Tlingit raiders. Indigenous culture is extremely hard to integrate into capitalized cultures as it has different economic principles. The successful bands here in Canada still remember and practice their old ways but run their territories as businesses and distribute their wealth equitably to band members.

Great video, and answering one of the pinned questions, yep, Southern Raiders was not just the top Katara moment for me, but the moment that made me go "Oh...this already good show is actually REALLY good." (Well, maybe Tale of Iroh did that first, but this hammered it home). I've tried to explain to people who've never seen the show just what a strong character moment that episode is, and they often seem kind of baffled that a show on Nickelodeon would've covered such ground. It's not just that Katara grows to develop a handle on her trauma and to trust someone she very recently saw as an existential threat to her and her loved ones, it's that the episode goes out of its way to demonstrate that Katara is *not* fully over her pain: Aang, who as the Avatar and member of the Air nomads often serves to embody a lot of the show's morality and philosophical outlook makes clear that it's important to forgive and to let go as a means of truly moving on and living our best lives...and yet Katara straight up admits it: she'll never be able to forgive her mother's killer. It's a perfectly understandable feeling, of course, but given how she's often depicted as part of the show's moral center alongside Aang it hits hard to hear her say that there's this dark part of her that she'll never really get past. To have a nominal "cartoon for kids" go some place like that with a character that in previous TV generations likely would've been forced by the network to always take the most moral stance in all situations is a truly striking, humanizing moment.

When katara went to visit her mother’s grave I think it would have been nice if they had katara make a rose or flower from ice with her water bending. I think that would have been really visually and emotionally appealing but I still it’s nice she had flowers to put on her mothers grave

So 'North and South' is sort of the opposite to the Shire in Peter Jackson's LotR or at least a happier 'Scouring of the Shire'. Instead of coming back to what you remember, what you were fighting for and not being able to fit back in due to the outside world's effects on the you, Katara has come back to her home to find that the outside world has arrived before her and she has to come to terms that she doesn't fit in because of the world's influence on her Shire.

This really hits home for me. Living as a Korean-American, I struggle with getting respect with conformity. As someone raised in a Korean household and some Christian values, living without drinking alcohol or smoking or even doing certain things makes me feel marginal... I'm always treated as a foreigner or a weird person, and if I do not conform to others outside then I'm not worthy or normal.

The leaders of the world are too focused on whats going on right now. If they were wise and brave they'd cast aside differences and bloody histories of ages gone by and all come to agreement and not provoke each other. But reality is not that simple and in this ever changing modern world of ours negotiations and business must come before all else. Other wise economies would wane and the balance of power would shift. The Cold War did much to shape the geo-political landscape and gave way to a system of balance that in my opinion is very dangerous and that is nuclear deterrence. While we can say nuclear deterrence has prevented another massive World War in the last 70 years. It has undoubtedly made partnerships and alliances harder. The US and Russia, are still at odds to an extent, although not as intense as it was during the Cold War but the Cold War only fueled distrust among the nations that opposed each other. I'd like to say the situation is better today but as history shows, today's ally is tomorrows enemy. Time marches on and with it so too the ways of the world.

Man, this is deep. I need to read these comics. I appreciate how it retains the nuanced complexity and honesty of the show. It really does reflect the reality in which we live. It's completely true that we are currently living in a world shaped by globalization and globalism, and there are those who want to march forward with that at any and all costs, while there are others who want to preserve their values and identity and maintsin their sovereignty and independence. The right-wing nationalist, populist and traditionalist moviements and sentiments growing in the US, UK, Italy, Poland, India, Japan, Brazil and so that oppose these opposite, progressive, globalizing forces very much reflect the kind of struggle between globalization and traditionalization as depicted in the Avatar universe. It's actually quite amazing how insightful Katara's personal journey very much reflects the struggles and challenges that are coming to define the world as we know it today.

Its not just that but it also the conquering and setting outher nations back ..people who can't compete or who are oppressed and traditions and beauty of nations are literally forgotten and dismissed. Like the southern water tribe was always regarded as nothing but no one knows much about them but then what really loved about avatar is that the very next avater comes out of the souther water tribe .this is why i always loved korra .also the other water avatar was from the south and they are known for being humble yet mighty worriers, those with high moral standards and compassion. They are the most human people in the show. Even the northern water tribes had very little regard for spirituality but had so much tradition instead. They were cold unlike the south..also korra season 2 have them so good advantages haha

I'm not sure how to explain it, but it's like being a fish who's content in a bowl of water, and then being dumped into the ocean.

Loved your video! I read up to North and South Part 3 too, but I wanted to hear your opinion on it. It would be interesting to hear how these themes relate to New Zealand culture and the Maori. I'm from Mexico, and choosing what to preserve from our past and what to let go is definitely a very difficult thing to do. Our love and respect for nature and different native traditions is something we have a constant struggle with, since our government has sometimes failed us in regards to protecting it. But I think that constant struggle has helped us preserve so many of our jungles and forested areas, and because of this we have not ravaged the land like the USA or Australia did so long ago.

The phrase "they forget to preserve what matters" is honestly a great way to put it. Even when not during times of conquest, be it due to disease or natural disaster or just the gradual shift of culture over time, things are lost by the people. Specifically things that weren't documented at first because everyone knew them already. Sure they "matter" but bc they already are known by everyone it isn't "important." It only becomes important once people realize how much their identity (or their survival) is tied to it. The problem arises bc usually that realization comes too late.

Honestly, I can't help but be *very* uncomfortable with the messages of North and South. The new architecture and the cultural institutions (compare the dinner party in the end of the first season of ATLA with what we see here) take way too much from Western/American rites, especially in the context of "rebuilding" a culture that's heavily based off of *the Inuits*. While it is debated enough throughout the comic and we're not given any explicit, objective answer, almost every plot point's conclusion (whether by accident or by pure belief) gives the perspective Katara and Gilak share-- respect for traditions-- way too little legitimacy in comparison to Sokka/Toph, who never really have to face the issues/existence of the idealistic "future" they're imagining in the same way Katara does. Oh yeah, Malina looking quite white in appearance and creating this almost gender-reversal Pocahontas story doesn't help either.

If you have the patience, and haven’t read them already, I highly recommend Michael Hardt and Antonio Negri’s Quadrilogy (Empire, Multitude, Commonwealth, and Assembly) that looks at these issues from our contemporary perspectives, thinking through strategies of resistance as creative, inclusive, integrative counter-globalization to globalization as a homogenizing force. I honestly detect influences of their thinking across these comics.
