Animorphuckery: Andalites as an Allegory For Imperialism
Jan 22, 2022 Season 1 Episode 5
Hannah Werme and Friends

Chelsea is a schoolteacher and it shows. Hannah majored in Political Science and minored in History. We both had A LOT to say about Imperialism and Animorphs!

Topics include: The Irish diaspora and Potato Famine, the Hong Kong and Panama 99-year treaties, the Spanish-American War, the Lewis and Clark Expedition, one-child policies, third-culture children, white saviorism, 9/11 and the War on Terror, women's history in STEM, and the Native American Genocide (with a strange amount of focus on the Pennacook tribe). Also, it is now headcanon that COVID is an Andalite STI.

READ "WITCH CHILD" AND "SORCERESS BY CELIA REES. YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT.
