Ok so . This still angers me so much, so I'm going to finally make a post about it.

The part of this article related to anti-Haitian sentiments is relevant, if you want to read more about it (the article also mentions times that this xenophobic sentiment lead to genocidal attacks on Haiti), but basically,

In The Heights was a film about the Caribbean and Latino community, and throughout the show, different countries and people are referenced. There's a song where people are singing about their mixed heritage, and you know the one country in the Carribbean/Latino community that did not get a single appearance OR MENTION throughout the movie AND musical?

Haiti. The first independent black nation, the first country to have a revolution against slavery in the Caribbean.

A flag Usnavi has in the film, which shows off the many countries of the Caribbean and has a proudly (but weirdly big) circle around Dominican Republic, seems to purposely cover up Haiti. It is the only Latino country covered up.

This is a continuation of a racist/colourist attitude that Latin America, especially Dominican Republic, holds against Haiti. This is especially dangerous to have in white media (like modern musicals, which have a majority white audience, and are, oftentimes, designed for a white audience), because it furthers the erasure of Haitian history. The article mentions that here:

This film/musical furthers the idea that Latin America can't also be black, and aids in the exclusion of Haitians from the Latin American communities they belong in. Just like the other half of the island they share, Haiti was colonized by the Spanish (and French). Just like the other half of the island, the indigenous people on the land Haiti now sits were massacred by the Spanish (and French).

The half assed apology Lin Manuel Miranda made is not enough for me to support him, and I think more of the Latin American/Caribbean community should research Haiti, the country that began the revolts that lead to the end of slavery. There's a lot of really cool history to learn, and things like this aid to erase that history!!

We have a castle and Citadelle made for a black king! Only ~250 years ago! It's really really cool!!!

if you were to ask me about In the Heights..

i'd tell you its a great musical with a cute storyline

but if you asked me on a deeper level..

i'd tell you that its one of the most beautiful musicals ive watched. it makes me feel so warm inside and theres never a week that i dont listen to the soundtrack. no i wasnt able to see the og but seeing clips is just fine. it never fails to make me cry by the end and its just such a good movie bro 😭😭🤍. (og soundtrack is better fight me)

"i found my island, i been on it this whole time, im home!"

(also sunrise is underrated)

TheFamousFilms! Again! Pre–ITH

First time finishing coloring something in a while lmaoooo

Took me hours. Pose is wack but I focused on the colors instead of the sketch. So. Meh.

More bullet points!

• Molten is basically taking a backseat in the plot but he is still important. Its time to give the others time to shine :)

• Lefty (I miss him) is probably the closest to a protagonist in this story. He's basically pushing the plot forward with his actions. But alas, he's a fucking coward so it's probably gonna focus on the animatronixs and Lefty's fear first before anything else happens.

• You're probably wondering why I said Lefty is the protagonist in this story but the one I posted has Bryan as the protag. Well you see, I planned a prequel and a sequel. With the prequel as Bryan being the MC and Lefty as the MC in sequel. The prequel is basically just me revisting season 1 and rewriting it and just putting Bryan and the animatronics through outlandish situation but less focused on the portal. Like making Bryan learn drifting. The portal is still there of course but it plays a very minor role. Although there are some things I wanted to try with it like making them join MCC XDDDDD. Its just me having fun. There's plot there but not like the sequel has with Lefty as the MC.

• Glitchtrap? He pulled a Springtrap and is in a computer. You know where this is going.

• Valerie? She doesn't die.

• Sun? Moon? Steve? They'll turn up eventually.

• Security Breach Mode? Aha. Ha. He's a security animatronic for a reason. Moon isn't yet he is anyway.

• I'm gonna try to incorporate their special abilities in the canon but that's still a work in progress.

• I wonder how Bryan got Glitchtrap out of Twisted Bonnie? Oh. And his name is Bon now. He's not a Glamrock :)

• Freddy is a bitch. OG Freddie is gone. Oh. He also has a side arc where he helps the daycare kids. Hopefully.

• Is Bryan's parents there? Unimportant. But they have a significant impact on how Bryan makes his decisions.

• Do managers get trained to manage a business? If they don't, they do now.

• Gregory? He's younger that's for sure. Pat and the aninatronics are like older siblings to him. Sam is like his uncle. Adopted uncle. And yes, Gregory adopted Sam. He's Gregory's uncle now whether he likes it or not.

• Oh. And EB? Yeah. He's a mercenary.

• What are Shadow animatronics exactly?

• Jon is desperately trying to make things right. So is Bryan. So why does Jon keep hearing from the others that Bryan's insane?

• Yellow.

And thats about it for now. Feel free to ask questions but don't expect exact answers.

I should probably draw the others too lmao
