I’m black, and that is what annoys me about studios and variety.
Similar to in actual life, in fantasy collection folks look sure methods because of their location. Everybody will get this.
I’m not asking for a present I’m anticipating to have white ppl to have a random black character shoehorned in until there’s a lore clarification (which there’s) what I hate nevertheless is when EVERYONE is white however then there’s one unimportant black elf, or one unimportant black villager and so forth. it’s simply lazy tokenism and what’s worse, imo it really creates extra issues trigger you give precise racists a simple goal.
I acquired downvoted to hell for calling out Disney for this however like.. you understand what? Put ur cash the place your mouth is. Rent black administrators, rent black writers, create authentic black fantasy collection, adapt historic black sagas (the twenty fifth dynasty of Egypt’s wars with Persia could be wonderful for instance)
One of many worst issues about being a POC lately is seeing how a lot range is simply advantage signaling for wealthy white elites greater than anything
