Ever wonder what the connection between an Academy Award-nominated Holiday movie and PeacePlayers’ core values is? Us too! That’s why we’ve brought back the host of the PopViolence Podcast, Tim Rasmussen, to discuss the critically acclaimed 2019 animated film, Klaus. In today’s holiday, bonus episode of Play It Forward, a social justice podcast presented by PeacePlayers, you’ll hear Chinny, Emmett, and Tim discuss the animation style, the stereotypes of Christmas and Holiday movies, whether or not Tim thinks the Nightmare Before Christmas is a Christmas movie AND the systems of violence and oppression that exist within our societies, even during the holiday season. This is a great, light conversation for anyone who enjoys a holiday movie, and also enjoys thinking more critically about the media we consume over the holidays.
Be sure to follow and listen to Tim’s podcast, PopViolence: movie/film reviews that interlace critical perspectives about violence, justice, conflict, and peace! Follow it on Instagram @pop.violence
