Incredible story! Although it would& #39;ve been great if we actually read more about the tongan boys and less of the white Australian man that rescues them that takes up a bulk of this article https://twitter.com/rcbregman/status/1259428196501594113">https://twitter.com/rcbregman...

And when the boys are put into jail (so suss) it& #39;s "fortunately peter has a plan" which is to acquire the rights to their story and have them released on the condition they cooperate with the movie ? All that just to pay the boat owner £150 ? What in the white savior complex

And why is an island with such a devastating backstory and history of blackbirding and the slave trade just casually mentioned like that. But sure gloss over that fact and talk more about how much the white guy yearned for the sea yada yada

Once again im reminded of why its important to let indigenous people tell their own stories. This is just a news article. I can& #39;t imagine what would happen if they let a white guy direct the movie.
