Not much representations.

- in 1960, inequality was noticed by people and it started to be implemented
Culture

Cuffs - Teens and above (12+)
Avengers - Adults (18+)
Difference in Representations between the Avengers and Cuffs
Cuffs was more inclusive to all different people. Back then, people didn’t really acknowledge stuff like LGBTQ+ and BLM so therefore all the actors were white straight people
