Taylor Richardson, a fourteen-year-old Black girl who’s already been making waves as she pursues her dream to become an astronaut, is raising funds to bring 1,000 girls to see A Wrinkle in Time.
Why? I have a lot of reasons but the main ones are:
1. It shows young, black girls deserving a chance to be a part of the scifi cultural canon.
2.
It has a female protagonist in a science fiction film. A brown girl
front and center who looks like me in the role of Meg, a girl traveling
to different planets and encountering beings and situations that I’d
never seen a girl of color in.
3. Most impressive and importantly,
it’s a fantasy film that is not about some white boys fighting evil, but
about a black girl overcoming it.Let’s help make this goal of hers into a reality.
