Avatar Reviews from China

By Edwin

—The Na’vi’s system of hereditary rule proves that democracy is not universally applicable.
—Dr. Grace Augustine shows the weaknesses of intellectuals, which are not to be trusted.
—When (will) Westerners stop seeing foreign cultures as female and themselves as male?
