Great show! Ignore hateful reviewers. However, the negative reviews prove just how important it is to include actors and characters that reflect the diversity of our world. As a gay man who has been addicted to all things Star Wars since 1977, reviewers, who suggest your world was made for straight white males who need to remember their fan base, have missed the inherent message of this universe. The force is the energy we all carry and reminds all of us we are connected in the ways that matter. I cheer for these new heroes and, more importantly, think of the little kids around the world who see a world where they are included. It’s worth all the stupidity that will be thrown at this show. I do know it still hurts, but remember we are creating a new world every time we imagine the possibility of a kinder universe. I will definitely tune in and applaud each and every person who is participating in this project. Storytelling teaches us who we can be and that is a force that can change the world, one episode at a time.
