Castigation (2023)

It’s been five months since Wayward premiered on Netflix and it still has some of us in a choke-hold.

This is not a story of oppression but a story of liberation.

It only seems to prove that when the company had their backs against the wall and needed an all pleasing, generic movie that had to make up for The Last Jedi, they chose to sacrifice almost everything that made their main protagonist interesting and that made her stand out as the strong female character that a generation of young movie goers was supposed to look up to. Instead, we were left with a Rey that was so much less than she could have been. And I guess that’s the real story of Rey and The Rise of Skywalker; they could have been so much more, but they were just more of the same.

Tired of being cooped up in their cages, the critters escape the Australian zoo and try to find their way to the outback.

“The most disrespected person in America is the Black Woman/the most unprotected person in America is the Black Woman,” Director Spivey Jr quotes. The quotes are absolutely true. Misogynoir is a devastating social ill that is not given the weight it is due.

“There’s always something you can do…to make people feel like they’re welcome”
