i wish that the go to response for when a game company (in this case mihoyo) fails to make any characters darker than a paper bag wasn't "be patient". we need to seriously evaluate the ever-present colorism, antiblackness and orientalism in a lot of our favourite fantasy games

your support for black artists should come from a desire to see improvement in our visibility and to combat the frequent hate and harassment we receive.. not to present yourself as some sort of super ally..

antiblackness in the animation industry (and bigotry in general) needs to be seriously addressed and not just by fans. Considering the roots of animation, it so easy to perpetuate harm and being dismissive of your audience's concerns isn’t the best look

Black artists shouldn't have to risk their platforms to speak on issues that affect them. As much as I enjoy posting art here, anti-Blackness continues to persist in all areas of the art community.

i wish our responses to racist art didn't involve capitalising off it by making positive/ship renditions... its heartwarming and feel-good but it ultimately does nothing to tackle the rampant racism/orientalism in the art community

This is one of the most blatantly racist things I’ve seen from this whole Rapunzel discourse. They did their research for this one you could spend a whole class studying it.

again reminder: dark skin tones comes in different shades. I'm not tan, I am a deeper brown. drawing a character that canonically has deep brown skin, a lighter, tanner brown is not good enough "they still look poc" doesn't cut it, not anymore

for most fictional white characters their whiteness is not integral to the character, they're only white because white is the default. it's not racism to want to see your likeness as the default mainstream

@MOLENAIDE Not to mention the silhouettes are all very similar.. I know it comes with the territory of anime-esque games but you don't have to give all your female characters thigh highs and skin cutouts. Especially when their male counterparts are given more interesting shapes..

the black women fan experience is relating with characters that don't look like you all throughout your child years until you realise that everyone around you has the most shallow understanding of what black women can be 😊

I never why people only feel represented by characters that look just like them. They must be the most uncreative mfs in the world. I mean I legit feel represented when the character has the same ideology and norms as me. Even if it’s an alien robot.
