Amandla Stenberg goes by both ‘she’ and ‘they’, is lesbian, and is an outspoken feminist

I’m very glad to learn a little bit more about the series as it’s one of the upcoming projects I’m most intrigued by

Me too, but did we really learn anything here besides the lead actress?

I just hope it isn’t too indicative of the series itself. I like my Star Wars to be an escape from reality, not a reminder of hot-button issues. Then again, Star Wars has always featured some call-back to real-world issues and politics. Just not usually contemporary ones.
