Olitz

In the latest episode, "Like Father, Like Daughter," Olitz reunites after months apart while she was in hiding with Jake.

What has also been a long-standing narrative from the point of view of fans is how Scandal has been profoundly silent on the issue of race, particularly in the portrayal of Olitz.

Olitz subverts 'post-race', liberal society's expectation of mono-racial intimacy based on an understanding of reproductive heterosexuality (Zack, 1993).
