    S1 Ep. 5: The Mandalorian

    What makes on-screen representation ‘Good’? In ‘The Mandolorian’ episode, we explore why diversity in the writer’s room and director’s chair is as essential as the diverse faces we see in the Star Wars Universe. We touch on the recent criticism surrounding representation in the Star Wars franchise and how the Mandalorian breaks out of this narrative. Geo takes a deep dive into Mandalorian culture and argues why he believes it is a feminist culture.
