Hey guys, I'm having one of those moments when I want to transport my Internet Knowledge (tm) into academic writing and am trying to find apt sources and/or research keywords but can't. Somebody's got to be writing about that thing that happens with tearjerker portrayals and racism, where the tactics of representational sympathy demand the display of a sad-but-deserving victim who can't be too weird or political or angry, and so the whole thing ends up reinforcing kyriarchy overall, right? What do you call that?
