Culture Gabfest - Avatar: Glorious or Racist Schlock?

This week, Dana, Julia, and Stephen get started by discussing Avatar: The Way of Water. Then they discuss the new Netflix documentary series Harry & Meghan. Finally, they finish by talking about the new Lensa AI art app and all the photos it’s generating online.

In Slate Plus, the panel answers a listener question about which works of art they like to revisit again and again?
