Remember who you are.
The Lion King (1994) dir. Roger Allers & Rob Minkoff
Men of the world need to be more like Jake Peralta
The best thing about Jake, though, is he didn’t start off this way. In season 1 he’s an immature, kinda gross dude, but he grows thanks to positive masculine influences in Captain Holt and Terry as well as his willingness to grow. Jake embodies the idea that good isn’t something you are, it’s something you do; he’s a great example of how it’s possible to grow and do better, even if it’s not always the easiest choice.
If more white boys were like Jake Peralta the world would be a better place.
And all around them slavers ran and sobbed and begged and died, and the dusty air was filled with spears and fire.
