Star Wars, after all, is about dismantling oppression. But where do BIPOC fans fit in the SW narrative? As Latinx and Black female fans, how do we center ourselves in this story? We discuss our passionate but tense relationship with the fandom and fiction. We also discuss how we can map our identities onto ones that are central to the story, even if they don’t look like us. Guests include podcasters Sistas with Sabers.
