In this video essay, I searched every online forum I could find and gathered every semi-credible complaint that fans have levied against the Disney Star Wars sequel trilogy. Join me for an in-depth analysis of the very subtle anti-feminist and racist undertones that the films contain, despite being promoted as positive portrayals of female and minority characters. (old vid, sorry for the poor audio)
UPDATE 5/12/20
There is a ton I wish I had done differently in making this, primarily, not showing my sources, which makes this entire video just look like one guy's opinion. Yes, I included personal opinions I didn't read elsewhere, but most of this video is a compilation of many people's complaints, not just my own. I will do better with future content, making sure I show sources and how they support my theories.

(this sub gets a lot of hate but they've been calling out the racism/sexism in the ST for years. Yes, it's an annoyingly salty place but they have been on the side of equality since the beginning, yet been attacked and labeled as racist misogynists.…....sound familiar?)

These types of videos take weeks of work. I've got so many ideas I could easily make videos full time. But I need time to work on them. Help me grow this channel so I can be a full time creator and I will deliver you videos worth your investment in me.
