Watching South Pacific, the music reminds me of my grandparents, and suddenly I’m gobsmacked by the realization that #JamesAMichener #Rodgers&Hammerstein created a best selling movie that perpetrated the same misogynistic, rape based, older man/younger women culture as #EpsteinFiles
It disgusts me!
