Hey Race Invaders, this week we team up with our friends over at All Comics Considered to trash talk, er, review Iron Fist. What does this show mean to comic book fans? What does it mean for Asian-Americans in Western Media (hint: nothing good).
If you enjoyed this podcast, share it with a friend. You can also send feedback to raceinvaders@raceinvaders.org. Our patreon is http://patreon.com/raceinvaders.

One thing I would like to address with respect to the, all but debunked, idea that the show could be a (too) subtle allegory for white privilege; Danny could not be the hero of the show if that were the case. If in fact the show was a poorly executed or incredibly subtle disertation on white privilege and power structures, Danny would have to be (at best) the battered knight. Making him the unexpected hero would derail the whole argument. Great pod cast guys
