Poignant Reminder That Representation Matters on Fangirls Going Rogue
It was a blast to have Kai Charles of Fictional State of Mind and Black Girl Nerds on the Fangirls Going Rogue. She’s a long time Star Wars friend. There was a moment when she talked about Finn in The Force Awakens and what it meant to her nephew that drove home why representation matters. I hope you’ll listen.
Porg noises! Kenobi! Freemaker Adventures! Forces of Destiny! Ron Howard’s Twitter feed! Kai Charles from Black Girl Nerds joins Sarah Woloski, Teresa Delgado and Tricia Barr to discuss these things and more, plus check an item off her bucket list.
