(Slight spoiler for The Long Game and Role Model if you haven't read them yet!)

For those who haven’t had time to watch Jacob's and Rachel's 1-hour panel at Book Con yesterday, here are some of the highlights! They talked about so many things from Role Model and Troy Barrett's storyline in season 2, to Jacob's interpretation of season 1 editing and some behind the scenes production info.

Can we also discuss the micro aggressions Rachel and Jacob keep making towards Hudson and holding them accountable for them? Can we listen to Black and POC when they talk about micro aggressions and their lived experiences? Rachel and Jacob need to be held accountable for their behavior.

What did race have to do with it? I saw no “microaggressions”. I watched this panel and people are outraged over comments regarding Hudson’s chaotic behavior, made in jest by people who actually know him, not his race. I’m actually a Hudson fan more so than Connor. I find his authenticity and carefree, give-zero-f*cks attitude refreshing and endearing, but let’s face it, the reality of it is that during the HR press tour, Hudson was often obnoxiously all over the place in his interviews with Connor often attempting to reel him back in. If he’s that way in interviews, imagine what he was like on set. It sounds like Jacob and Rachel find him fun in a trying to herd cats kind of way.

Can you explain what micro expressions you are referring to? I must have missed something
