Content Warnings

Moderate: Biphobia, Hate crime, Homophobia, Terminal illness, Transphobia, Police brutality, Religious bigotry, Lesbophobia, and Pandemic/Epidemic

The book covers historical context for each show so you get a better grasp on where America is in time and what makes each show so radical for it's time. Due to that, there is discussion of homophobic and transphobic bigotry due to the religious beliefs of some, as well as police violence and discussion of HIV/AIDS in the context of this book.
