a measured and appropriately serious video essay about zootopia.

🔹🔹Zootopia is a city where animals of all kinds can come together to live in harmony. Well, unless you're a reptile. Or a fish. And as long as living together means living on opposite sides of massive walls. Let's talk about Zootopias 1 & 2 — movies that have been praised for progressive messages, but that seem to uphold some pretty regressive ideas about race, policing, and how society should be structured.🔹🔹 🔶🔶A huge thank you to David Helps for lending me his expertise!
