Lifetime's Black Christmas For Colored Nerds

    • Society & Culture

The holiday movie genre is loved by many (especially Brittany), even though its films are known to be about as diverse as La La Land and often have white conservative Christian undertones to the storytelling. But lately, Lifetime's holiday slate has featured Black, queer, disabled, and Asian leads, bucking the usual trend. Today, Brittany and Eric examine some of the network's holiday offerings and get insight on the uptick in inclusive films from Lifetime's VP of Scripted Content.
