Twin Peaks is Candy for White Liberals

There are two non-white characters in the first season of Twin Peaks — one is Hawk, an American Indian. He works for the police, and as a person of color watching the show, I was drawn to him. After all, what else do I have? Other than Audrey, who reminds me of an ex-girlfriend, I don’t really care for most of the multi-dimensional white people who share a common flaw of ignoring their own psychological disorders. And I quickly came to hate the other non-white character on the show: Josie, the sneaky, Asian immigrant dragon lady, who speaks in broken English. She’s basically the most offensive definition possible for “fresh off the boat.”
