CW: Microaggressions, racism, classism, fatphobic comment, ableist comment, and bullying.
Great discussion of classism, racism, stereotypes, and microaggressions & bullying. Jordan is Chinese American and Black living in the Bronx, NY. There's also a Nicaraguan character.
There is some ableism - the MC is shown saying "I'm blind" referring to him being asked, "what's the worst that can happen?" and a mother of one of Jordan's classmates calling another POC character, chubby - fatphobic comment.
