Our listeners are diverse! Some listeners love football. Some love basketball, others prefer baseball, soccer, wrestling, NASCAR, golf or tennis! And others still, love the knock-down sport of ROLLER DERBY! It’s PRIDE month and Sarah & Jennie chat about how Whip It (2009) highlights not just a badass game but also demonstrates how one facet of our individuality shouldn’t be the qualification for acceptance. Even if you don’t agree with every choice, characteristic and shining shimmer that makes each human being unique, Screen Cares urges you to keep your hearts open. (...And also, to keep your tummies full ‘cause being hangry helps no one.)

Screen Shares Rating: Whip It (2009) is a fun Buddy Screen to enjoy with friends because of the wonderful camaraderie and great portrayal of imperfect but real friendship, but it could also work as a Solo Screen for a great way to pick yourself up if you’re feeling down.
