It's crazy that Britain is in a place now where teaching anti-racism in schools is seen as controversial and damaging to white kids, and tackling child hunger is a debatable chore. These same ppl bang on about the plight of working class white kids but don't care if they starve?

Tbh I think he made the right decision bc they were incompatible, but that was obvious from the beginning and it's clear had doubts when she didn't. I'm just sad he blindsided her + kept reassuring her mum that he would look after her just mins before saying No. That was cruel.

Guts is so MANLY. And yet, he is fragile. My latest, GUTS AND MASCULINITY, explores how Manga Genius Miura portrays the manliest of men so sensitively, allowing him to overcome trauma and abuse. ...essay inspired by my dislike of Donovan memes.

It's almost as if white working class kids are only useful for the denial of racism, and in reality, the average Briton doesn't care that there are thousands of these children going hungry. Add the fact that a working class Black man is heading the campaign and it becomes "woke".

It sets a dangerous precedent that an author's books can be modified to suit the conventions of new cultures. What this actually does is whitewash history and removes evidence of casual racism from the past. Why not put discussion pages or annotations highlighting the issues?

@txadel_ It's because for liberals, none of those things are important. They all kept silent during the racism suffered by Diane Abbott and Jovan Owusu-Nepaul too. British liberals are self-serving but they fool themselves by saying they will tackle those "fringe" issues at a later date.

I love Casca. Miura gave her allll the emotions. And then she's pretty much the damsel of Conviction. And the rest of the story isn't just about Griffith and revenge, but about Guts's unwavering love for her, that he would cross the world just for the chance to heal her.

One of the saddest things about Miura's passing is how he saved so many lives through Berserk. Being a fan, you regularly hear of people who literally decided to keep on living because they were inspired by Guts & wanted to see how his story would end. The fandom's here for you.

Agatha Christie was British, and one thing British people are good at is pretending their role in racist structures is either non-existent or salvific. We studied Kipling et al in uni, we got to see how colonialism was so readily accepted; literature was part of the propaganda.

Guys when I tell you this week has been CRAZY. I can't even tell you all of it. I'm tweeting something I never thought I would get to tweet. Happy to say I'm now repped by @MollyJamieson from @UnitedAgents . Honestly, thanks for all your support and good vibes over the years.

@Theozilla01 @AnimeFeminist @WriterVrai @LuxLRKing Truly. His disdain really comes through in the SBS segments and it's his responses to female fans that made me first realise his behaviour is deliberate. I'm glad they were included in this article.

Right now, it'll be a tie. However I kinda think that their next 1v1 will be their last, and it'll be glorious. Guts will probably kill him, which he'll need to do to get to Griffith, but that's just my headcanon.

Studio Gaga! Bravo. The art is great. I think Berserk is in good hands.

People should block this page. Literally no link, no context, no quote, nothing to say where they got this info from and now Jamie Foxx is trending with everyone panicking about his demise. Nonsense account.

I'm so happy I managed to track down my primary school teacher to thank her for encouraging my writing, waay back in year four. For the good teachers out there, thank you for everything you do. Your pupils will always remember you.

You see how the media changed the goal posts? Now the discussion is all about censorship, and not racism in literature and how the industry closed ranks to discredit the writers of colour who rightly criticised Clanchy's book.

1. Mainstream medias misreporting of the situation is calculated tactical chinese-whispers. Every publication reports from the last diluted misrepresented story, until the narrative barely represents the truth at all. Most recent examples of this are Sarah Ditum, & Tom Slater.

What the hell is this? It's not even a review of the work, just a hit piece on the author herself. For some reason this reviewer is framing Kabi's mental health struggles as a personal failing.

Yes. 4 yrs ago I was in a "bitter place". My first novel got rejected and the TL was full of "I just got an agent!" Tweets. So I returned to a novel I started in 2010 & it's been the best thing I ever did. I'm happy! I even set up a writers org to help Black women get published.

Was great to see Berserk trending last night. I think that's a first for me.

A seagull shat in my friend's plate once during a cookout. She had a whole plate of jollof rice, plantain and stew. The aim was impeccable. Lunch ruined. We all screamed and ran inside the house.

So after being torn between TJ and Jo for ages I'm sorry to say that I'm team TJ. His history with Ian is way more compelling. He's toxic but he knows it. Jo is fake-nice. #WetSand

I wonder if Miura will ever give us another Guts x Casca sex scene. When everyone's all healed up and recovering from everything, I would so love to see it. At this point I would even settle for a hug. It's been tough seeing them so distant after all this time.

@rgay A common thread with the apologies coming out right now is a lack of reading before responding acrimoniously and piling on a young woman of colour. I'm just surprised and disappointed that so many authors chose not to read before participating in such abhorrent behaviour.

Great article. I always struggle with MHA bc whilst it's a cool story, a lot of important elements are just not fleshed out well. The villains are probably the worst part of it. Their motives are cynically simplistic @ the start, which leads to the issues highlighted here.

@DreamingAria_ @chaoticgud I agree, but tbh I think that most people do care about their loved ones irl & try their best. But celebrity suicides remind us that no matter how rich and exciting your life, or how many people love you, you can still be unhappy & suffer inside.

#Berserk & The Power of Friendship: Companions as moral compasses. Comparing the Travelling Party + the Neo-Hawk and how the latter exemplifies unhealthy devotion whilst the former shows how good friends chastise each other to the betterment of everyone.
