It’s made abundantly clear throughout that the awful humiliation endured by Kim, and eventually her brutal murder, are inflicted by the characters who are the bad guys in the show-so, what we see is more a criticism of transphobia than an endorsement of it. Well, I am not sure I can fully relate to this. Please be aware of that while watching the show. While the show has a strong transphobic undertone, the performance of Damon Herriman got high praise by critics (earning hinm an AACTA award - the equivlanet of Australia’s Oscars/Emmy for best supporting actor).
while I‘m screaming at my tv the boyfriend’s response “Kim was a woman” was followed up by another transphobic comment “Yes. even at her funeral.Īt the end of the series Harriet, the main character played by Anna Torv, has sex with Kim’s former boyfriend only to ask him if he’s now attracted to women. The show carrys on their transphobia by keep addressing her with the wrong pronouns. At the end of the 2nd episode she is then brutally murdered by her boyfriend. In the first two episodes she undergoes a lot of humiliation by being forced to take off her clothes. She is played by a cis man called Damon Herriman. Netflix’s secret city has a trans woman (called Kim Gordon) as one of the supporting characters in their show. But if art isn’t your thing, there’s still lots more to do: get cultured with a French flick in Washington Square Park, or schooled at Lost Lectures as it returns to a secret, former ship-building warehouse somewhere in the Brooklyn Navy Yard.Hope-destiny-redemption: why is nobody freaking out about the transphobia in netflix’s secret city? And being thrifty is in the air with the Museum Mile Festival which is offering free admission to nine museums along 5th Avenue. Novice art collectors can have their day at Cotton Candy for their very popular annual Tiny Trifecta, where all works by renowned artists are just $100. Kim Gordon, the unstoppable, inspirational Jane-of-all-trades leads the week with the opening of her latest fine art exhibition-as if playing in two bands and penning a best-selling memoir were not enough already.
