Anna and Elsa, sovereigns of Arendelle, have been pop culture icons since they debuted on the scene in Frozen in late 2013... Of course, you didn't need us to tell you that. However, their most recent adventure at the end of last year in Frozen II took a turn for the post-colonial. In this episode, we get deep into some headier post-colonial theories; we discuss the ways in which Arendelle defines itself relationally to its neighbors, and we talk about some of Frozen II's pitfalls. We talk about Spivak's concept of the subaltern, and which of the film's characters find themselves discursively excluded as a result of colonialist powers. Hope you enjoy!
