Happy Trans Day of Visibility, especially to the trans people in my life. The stills below are a good reminder of how important it is to see trans people on screen, for all of us.

@nontweetingkate There’s also Laura Saxton’s “A true story: defining accuracy and authenticity in historical fiction” which specifically discusses The Crown

@nontweetingkate I just read a really interesting piece by Stephanie Russo called “‘You are, like, so woke’: Dickinson and the anachronistic turn in historical drama”. She analyses the TV series Dickinson in relation to the notion of historical accuracy and draws some exciting conclusions 😊
