#CancelNetflix

Netflix is currently experiencing serious online backlash for providing a platform for the controversial French film "Cuties," about an 11-year-old Senegalese girl living in Paris who joins an all-girl dance group. Last month, the streaming giant apologized after a poster promoting the movie was accused of sexualizing its young cast. Since "Cuties" premiered on Wednesday, a #CancelNetflix campaign has been trending on Twitter, with some equating the coming-of-age film to pedophilia.
