It’s bittersweet to so often be referred to as “the first black woman” to do things. It’s tragic that firsts are still being made at this late hour. How can I celebrate myself as the first when so many more talented, creative people came before, but weren’t allowed the opportunities?

Everywhere. All over the place. There's connective tissue. All of this, all of it... is linked.

Today We Honor Ava DuVernay
With films like 13th, Selma, A Wrinkle in Time, and Origin, Ava DuVernay has made it a point to put representation at the forefront of her critically acclaimed work.
She has also racked up countless firsts: the first Black woman to win the Best Directing Award at Sundance in 2012; the first Black woman to get a Best Director Golden Globe nomination; the first woman of color to direct an Oscar-nominated Best Picture film; and the first woman to direct a film that grossed more than $100 million domestically.
Her work has made her the highest grossing Black woman director in American box office history. “When They See Us,” was nominated for 16 Emmy awards, making her the first African American women in Primetime Emmy history to receive multiple nominations in their careers for directing.

One of youtubers I follow did video about recent Critical Role episode, which caused some controversy over controversial decision by guest Game Master, Aabria Iyengar. The youtuber explains for nearly 20 minutes why they disagree with her decision and considers it bad GM-ing. Finishes by underlining that a single mistake doesn't undermine whole career or makes you a bad GM. I go into the comment section and it's full of people tripping over each other to declare how they lost all respect to Aabria. I go to Critical Role reddit, same attitude.
I don't even watch CR but geez, this fandom sure is fast to condemn black women at drop of a hat.
so I also don't follow CR... but this is a common occurrence in all fandoms. a black female character makes a mistake or acts against the majority nonblack cast in some way that's automatically perceived as unforgivable and the entire fandom comes for the Black female character to rake her across the coals.
I'll give a slightly more recent example. Ava Duvernay was called out in some of posts for not lending her voice to freeing palestine. when in fact anyone that follows Ava knows she's been pro palestine for a while and yet there's loads of self righteous white "allies" jumping to cancel actors and celebrities of color but if you go into their following lists they follow quite a few white celebrities and don't demand the same energy for Palestine.
