What Netflix's “Shadow and Bone” Gets Right and Wrong with the Books’ Diversity
Netflix’s Shadow and Bone has a complicated relationship with race. It has a diverse cast, but not without its problems. Based on Leigh Bardugo’s two book series, the show features characters from the Shadow and Bone trilogy, which is very straight and white, and the Six of Crows duology, which is much more diverse.

Shadow and Bone seems to play a bit of a push and pull game when it comes to portraying diversity onscreen.
