Gotta love how the mass media version of being progressive is to make yet another series about Tudor-era English royalty but casting black people in it. Why the fuck aren’t we simply getting stories from early modern Africa ? Who even gives a shit about Ann Boleyn at this point ?

Netflix studios will dig into historical documents to find some random knights aide from 1071 to made a serial about while the empire of Mali is right there complete with an evil sorcerer king with sandals made of human skin like the shit might as well write itself.

SEE ??! I want to learn about a guy fighting a wizard with necronomishoes !

Queen Ranavalona I of Madagascar took the throne after her husband died and spent the next 33 years telling Europe to go fuck itself, outlawing Christianity, having as many lovers as she wanted, having intrigues and scandals involving witchcraft, and terrifying the absolute shit out of the French and English, and is rumored to have returned as a spirit and raised hell after her son legalized Christianity again after her death at 83. 

I want five seasons yesterday.
