On April 8, we’ll see the debut of the final round of episodes for the juggernaut hit series, “The Handmaid’s Tale.” An adaptation of the Margaret Atwood male-dominated dystopian novel of the same name, the show that sees women treated as second-class citizens has injected itself into the real world as many dark elements of the book/show are now being reflected in ways in American life. Certainly, a warning of bad things COULD become if things don’t change soon.
