UNICAMP 2024 – Questão 70

Linguagens / Inglês
Netflix’s “Wednesday” draws many real-world parallels. It features unusual creatures (werewolves and psychics) collectively referred to as Outcasts, while they refer to non-supernatural humans as Normies. The Outcasts are stand-ins for anyone othered by society, such as indigenous people, People of Color, the LGBT+, and the neurodivergent. Every so often, the Normies’ distrust in the Outcasts boils over into hatred and violence, and the othering and dehumanization normalizes violence against the Outcasts in day-to-day life. In the show, the town’s colonial era saw Outcasts not only being “othered”, but also murdered by Pilgrims. These acts of butchery were all but erased from their history books. It’s a distressingly familiar story.
