I guess I'm upset about this
Oct. 30th, 2012 12:32 pmLana Wachowski says part of her hope with "Cloud Atlas" is that it will challenge transphobia:

(Title is somewhat misleading). Also she's been doing some great work speaking about her transition, etc.
However, Cloud Atlas uses yellow face. Egregiously.

Intersectionality is so important. Ms. Wachowski is attempting to fight one kind of oppression, but is further oppressing Asian people, and completely ignoring the fact that trans Asian people exist. How are they supposed to react to this movie?
Zuko, I am disappoint.
