We’re jumping on the bandwagon! This week we’re talking about Avatar: The Last Airbender. And it is actually a lighter episode this time, finally… We talk about the show’s messages around the value of diverse perspectives, the cost of divorcing yourself from the world, and Fire Nation exceptionalism. And of course, it wouldn’t be an episode of Unramblings without conversations about sexism and intergenerational dysfunction!
