Everything about the framing of those choices felt violent, unnecessary, and ultimately regressive for a show that usually prides itself on centering black women's stories.
This Tuesday's Black Lightning was centered on change: a change of heart for Jennifer... a change in the Pierce household... a change in policies at Garfield... and a change in pod research methods.
