I’m so sick of you bitches downplaying what Leah has gone through so that you can keep your imaginary fictional white girl that doesn’t exist in canon anymore. No, it’s not “some” people, it’s most of this racist ass fucking fandom that flooded her comments for two damn years with death threats. It’s the people who came into my mentions years before the show came out to harass me about my views of Annabeth as a non-white girl. You letting go of white Annabeth is not hurting anybody. You clinging onto white Annabeth so hard is what’s getting Leah harassed.
And if this fucking fandom had just stood on business when she had been cast and said Leah IS our Annabeth and Annabeth IS BLACK and just let go of the white imaginary version of her, than Leah would not have gotten the level of harassment she did and still does. The reason racists are emboldened to say the shit they do to her is because the fandom has tried to separate book and show Annabeth. And it’s because y’all are racist too.
It’s not “cool as fuck” to have “different versions of a character” when one version directly leads to the harassment of a REAL GIRL.
Walker and Leah being the top result when you put percabeth in the search engine WAR IS OVER
