Beschreibungen/Notizen

• Twenty years later, women who came of age with Buffy faced a real-life Big Bad in the form of Republican presidential nominee Donald J. Trump. Hillary Clinton was cast as the Democratic Party's Chosen One, the solitary figure standing between Trump and the White House. [...]as I look back on it today, I notice that the images accompanying that stirring text are of individual women standing up- alone-in daunting situations. Whedon knew as much when he formed his own super-PAC and deployed it on behalf of Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign.
