eastwest101 is a community for fans of the Australian TV police drama East West 101

Members should feel free to post links or content. Please put spoilers, large images, multiple images or long posts behind a cut.

As a police drama, East West 101 covers disturbing, distressing and triggering subjects. Discussion on these subjects is welcome. The community requires the use of cut text and warnings for disturbing, distressing and triggering content. You can find an explanation of using a cut in this Dreamwidth FAQ. It would be appreciated if you erred on the side of caution. We can all click a cut link, but it's hard to un-read that which is not behind a cut.

No flames, play respectfully. If the community gets large or busy, we will seek guidance from the rules of other well run communities in order to keep us orderly.

Racism is a big issue in East West 101, and a number of us were drawn to the show by the way it represents ethnicity and racism in Australia. Please discuss these issues with respect to fellow commenters.
