It's Female Led Comedy Month! Our first movie of the month is Bring it On! This movie actually tackles some interesting points of view on cultural appropriation, white savior-hood, and even shows a progressive stance toward being gay at a time when being gay was still not normalized. So enjoy our take as we talk about one of our favorite movies!
