Progressive
Primary
The series consistently features a team fighting corporate and political corruption, exposing systemic injustices against the vulnerable. This strong focus on critiquing powerful elites and advocating for social justice aligns its dominant themes with progressive values.
Leverage: Redemption features a visibly diverse main cast, including returning and new minority characters in significant roles. The narrative primarily focuses on critiquing corrupt individuals and institutions for their actions rather than explicitly targeting traditional identities.
Secondary
Leverage: Redemption features LGBTQ+ characters whose identities are depicted with dignity and without being a source of conflict or ridicule. The show includes a main character who is bisexual and a positively portrayed gay character in a supporting role, contributing to an overall affirming and respectful portrayal of queer identity.
Leverage: Redemption features Maria, a trans woman, as a skilled and respected hacker. Her trans identity is depicted with dignity and is integrated naturally into the narrative, free from mockery or negative stereotypes. The show portrays her positively, with conflicts arising from external threats rather than her gender identity.
The show features Parker, a prominent female character, who frequently engages in and wins close-quarters physical fights against multiple male opponents, utilizing her agility and martial arts expertise.
Leverage: Redemption features returning core characters who maintain their original established genders. New characters introduced in the series are original creations and not gender-swapped versions of prior canon characters.
