S01.E07: Cassandra

I really enjoyed Niecy Nash’s  portrayal of Cassandra the neighbor of Jeffrey who repeatedly got ignored by the cops about her concerns over his behavior.   It was heartbreaking to watch her talk about black people’s voices being largely ignored by American police even when she was being pestered by newspapers in France. She should have been the first person they talked to but the law was likely busy with its own internal postering since the two cops who gave the 14 year old boy back to Dahmer never did really pay.

Niecy Nash is amazing. I love her work so much.

And her face is just stunning. And so interesting.

She really is. The work she can do with her face, those silent moments are so powerful. I can’t imagine the emotional turmoil someone in Glenda‘s position would be in- she tried to help, she did the right thing as a person and a neighbor, to be ignored, dismissed, and the survivor’s guilt. The world needs people like Glenda (who speak up when things don’t look right), but who wants to be in that position? I think that’s why so many turn a blind eye. 
 

I was also super creeped out by Evan Peters and the “eat it”.  Bone chilling. One thing I’m really loving about this series is how the victims and neighbors have agency. It’s not romanticizing Dahmer in any way. I would’ve thrown that fucking sandwich in the trash the moment he left though.

Maybe she should’ve taken that sandwich to the police and demanded that they test it, or eat it themselves.
