Teen Netflix Show Never Have I Ever Hilariously Mocks Teacher Pushing SJW Ideology

Netflix s teen comedy Never Have I Ever dropped its second season on July 15. It brought us back into the world of high schooler Devi Vishwakumar (Maitreyi Ramakrishnan) and the struggles she faces not only as a typical teen trying to navigate boys, friendships, and school, but one doing so as a first-generation Indian American caught between cultures.  This season brought back one of my favorite ongoing jokes from season one mocking the social-justice warrior ideologue who teaches rethinking history class. Mr. Shapiro (Adam Shapiro) is an oblivious white man who tries to make history class all about his progressive ideology, much to the eye-rolling chagrin of his students. When we first see him this year, he s standing in front of a chalkboard that reads Who can say what words? A dangerous journey through appropriation and that s just the start.

Never Have I Ever Complicates Its Asian American Characters That s The Whole Point

Never Have I Ever. Isabella B. Vosmikova / Netflix If it s tough being a teen, try being 15-year-old Devi Vishwakumar from the San Fernando Valley. She s still processing the death of her father while trying to climb up the social ladder and get into her dream school (Princeton). But now she has a new frenemy to contend with; not one, but two boyfriends and her mom s trying to move her to India. But as Devi would say, she s chill as a slurpee, bro. The second season of the Netflix series, Never Have I Ever brings back the cringe and chaos as Devi (Maitreyi Ramakrishnan), her mom Nalini (Poorna Jagannathan) and cousin Kamala (Richa Moorjani) navigate their own conflicts at work, at school and in their love lives. But this time, the Mindy Kaling-created show assigns more depth to the Indian-American female characters by complicating their storylines which is exactly the point.
