“Covered in fear your skin is crawling, come over here my storm is calling, water your heart I feel it growing / I wanna wrap you in my lonely, all of your weight just put it on me, water my heart I feel it growing” 🎵

I’ve been thinking about this scene in ‘What We,’ and wanted to highlight the breathtaking and emotionally moving details of this specific moment. From the expressive eyes/eyebrows, to Michonne holding Rick’s hand to her chest to help him ground, to the wiping of tears off of Rick’s cheek. It is all so beautiful, and carefully acted. I can’t even begin to explain how much I adore the hand over chest gesture - absolutely precious, gentle and such an act of love. She grounded Rick with his home; her heart(beat), her breathing, her being. Whew.

Danai and Andy have such a stunning way of acting through their facial expressions. For that alone they deserve all the accolades. ❣️

Today is a good day to remember the 1942 Zoot Suit Riots, in which WWII army members and the LA times accused Mexican American men as a unit of sexual assault and gang activity.

Earlier that year, a young Latino man was possibly murdered by an unknown assailant? (LAPD botched the case so bad no one is sure if it was actually murder) and 17 Latino boys were arrested without evidence. They were not given a fair trial, with accusers even going so far as to bring in a sheriff to claim Mexican people had a biological need for violence. Activists who helped get the case thrown out and the accused men released were investigated for communism.

US soldiers, cops, and white vigilantes used this as an excuse to violently attack Angelinos with Latino, Black, and Filipino heritage. These attacks especially targeted young men wearing the counter culture zoot suit, which they saw as a sign of gang membership and who soldiers believed flew in the face of fabric rationing. Media suppressed the truth. No soldiers were arrested but 500+ People of Color were. The MEXICAN EMBASSY had to intervene, finally leading to investigations. Some scholars call it a program against the Mexican American Community.
