Whew... What a mess. Hulu’s new miniseries ‘Little Fires Everywhere,’ poses questions about race, privilege, and class. This week, my friend Aisha (@aishaasmalleyy) and I get into the themes of this series and the complex situations the characters found themselves in.
What makes someone a competent parent? Would you abort a child even though you have the means to support one? What does a privileged person write about when describing their biggest hardship? Why does this show sympathize with questionable behavior?
