About this listen

The scariest thing about the movies Get Out and Sinners isn’t the body-snatching or the blood-sucking. It’s how accurately they show us what whiteness does.

These films are not just horror stories. They are commentaries on extraction, exploitation, and colonization.

In this episode, Dr. Jemar compares the two films and the use of horror to convey deeper social truths.
