Tiger King, A Morality Play (with Eileen G'Sell)

Update: 2020-04-27

Description

Tiger King was a sensation, so a million words had to be spilled in response. Most of those words accused the Netflix docuseries itself of being immoral, misogynistic, exploitative. Rather than just depicting immorality, misogyny, and exploitation. Why do we look to our entertainment to teach us moral lessons, why do we need so many strong female heroines, why do we need our filmmakers, writers, and artists to talk to us like we are children? Cultural critic and poet Eileen G'Sell joins Jessa Crispin to discuss.
