It would have been more accurate to reality if the girl wasn’t white.
The girl was called Marta Cabrera and played by a Cuban-Spanish actress, so I don’t think she was as white as you remember.
People just see non-black POC and go “WHITE!” Don’t they
Wasn’t there a whole running Thing where all the rich people thought she was from a different country in Latin America. How do you watch that and think the character is white
On this day, 25 August 1944, the liberation of Paris was completed by the Free French forces and the occupying German troops surrendered. However, the Free French unit which recaptured the city had been ethnically cleansed of Black soldiers, who made up a large part of the Free French army, as US and UK military commanders only allowed the French to liberate the city if they excluded Black troops. Black servicemen were also excluded from the liberation celebrations. Pictured is resistance hero Georges Dukson, right, who had been shot and wounded in action, near General De Gaulle during the official celebrations. After this photograph was taken, he was removed from the event at gunpoint.

I’m that millennial cusp where Blockbuster was phasing into Netflix near the end of high school— and I miss the video store rental vibes 📼 154 of my random favorite horror movies from the 70s-90s, printed on card stock and wrapped one by one around cardboard bits. (If you want to see progress pics there’s an IG story highlight.)
This blog is mostly so I can vent my feelings and share my interests. Other than that, I am nothing special.
If you don't like Left Wing political thought and philosophy, all things related to horror, the supernatural, the grotesque, guns or the strange, then get the fuck out. I just warned you.
