All of us have our favorite shows that we like to binge. For some it may be sci-fi, or for others it could be teen dramas. A show that I highly recommend though, is Anne with an E. This show can be found on Netflix and it has a total of 3 seasons. This show has impacted me quite a bit while I've watched it, and here's why...

1. The show discusses issues of feminism. In one of the episodes of season 3, a young girl is taken advantage of by a man yet she is the one who reputation is "ruined". The main character, Anne, won't let this stand at all. She gathers her classmates to show the whole town that the boy was in the wrong, not the girl. Just the fact that a show about the 1800s decides to cover topics like this warms my heart because it shows how long this problem has been going on.
2. There is discussion around race. One of the characters introduced in season 2 is Sebastian. Back in that time period, people of color weren't welcome anywhere, especially small towns in Canada. In this show though, they all fight for Sebastian to be treated as an equal in their town and everywhere they go. Even though this is still a problem in a lot of places, this show gives us an insight about how they handled it back then.
3. Finally, the story is awe-inspiring to me. This young girl who only wants the times to change and for everyone to see what is really happening in their world is something I can relate to a whole lot. People may laugh in her face and tell her she's delusional, but she is persistent and strong willed. To me, that is a very redeeming quality.

If you watch this show, just remember that it is a reflection on our world now. Things still aren't perfect, but Anne can sure try to make them be.
