'How to Get Away With Murder's Annalise Keating (ft Taylor Crumpton)

Cultural critic and columnist Taylor Crumpton joins Black Queer Canon hosts Tre’vell and Mikelle dig into the ABC original “How To Get Away With Murder.” In particular, the pair delve into the full-time lawyer, part-time bully and eventual self-described bisexual Annalise Keating (Viola Davis) at the center of the series which began airing in 2014. Among other things, the episode discusses the methods of Shondaland, how Annalise stacks up in terms of Black bisexual representation and whether or not show writers engineered a last-minute cop out to evade queerbaiting allegations.Black Queer Canon is a production of Slayzhon.
