I think the author of this article is way over thinking Game of Thrones. I don't see the racism going on in Essos and Danny's story. Sure she's a "white leader freeing slaves", but the slaves are white,brown,black, and the slave owners are also white,brown,black. Also the Cersie example is awful. Ever since Tyrion was born she wished him dead, she's ordered the execution of innocent people, and treats the Jamie like crap and viewers are suppose to like her? "but the abuse she faces from her father and the love she holds for her children make her human. Yet, we still hate her" Abuse? compared to Tyrion? Anyway GoT shreds and its only getting better.
