The world has lost a visionary today. Not only a pioneer of the zombie movie but a pioneer of representation and social commentary in film. FAR ahead of his time on race and gender issues. Take a look at some of the reactions from notable people of color on Twitter: Romero started it. pic.twitter.com/i4dnxi8EFV — Jordan Peele (@JordanPeele) July 16, 2017 George Romero made a film where the levelheaded Black hero survives zombies only to be killed by scared whites.

However, we also have something a little bit more interesting: a blog post by Andy W. Taylor about Sarah Connor and the strong female character. I love the analysis here, making an argument for Sarah as a strong female lead not only in the second Terminator movie but also the first.
