Made this mistake of skimming through some "audience reviews" on RT today, and I'm not surprised to see folks claiming that they're forcing "diversity" into the series, because these same viewers love to remain ignorant of actual history.
There's a reason why, in my review, I pointedly address the fact that the show's Black doctor, Dr. George Tann, was in fact a very REAL person who saved the Ingalls' lives and is the sole reason we even have this story to begin with. Otherwise, they would've been wiped out by malaria. Also, expanding on the experiences of the Osage Nation (a very real aspect of the Ingalls living on stolen land in a very contentious period of history for indigenous peoples) just makes sense. These are all real, authentic, and true aspects of the American frontier experience. Just because you love whitewashed shoot 'em up westerns does not make you knowledgeable about the era at all.
Never forget how the guy who says elections are rigged, claims that Lindsey Graham was "scheduled to win by a lot. He was scheduled."
"Scheduled?"
What a strange thing to say.
I would really like AI to not be integrated into every app, every search engine, every customer service call. It makes the user experience so unpleasant.

When America is at our best, we look out for one another and know that we have much more in common than what separates us. That idea has been fundamental to the fabric of our nation since our founding.
As we celebrate 250 years, let us always commit to honoring the progress we have made and continuing our fight to ensure the promise of America belongs to all of us.
The story of America cannot be told without the story of Black America.
As the nation marks 250 years since its founding, EBONY looks back at the people, movements, and defining moments that shaped this country. As well as the generations who refused to be written out of its history.
