Already reading bad takes comparing ROSEMEAD to other AA films, e.g, it "borrows elements" of Chinese mothers fr Didi & EEAAO. 😳 Asian Americans said this! This is like saying 'We Need to Talk About Kevin' borrowed elements fr white moms of Lady Bird & Serial Mom. Decolonize your minds, my brothas!
