I hate when writers do readers who are related to a character in the story/plot/movie/whatever. And 9 times out of 10 that character is white. Like can I read my cutesy Peter Parker fanfiction without worrying about the fact that I’m supposedly related to a white man? Thank you

@vasyandii Thanks for bringing light to that person’s actions. Now let me throw some more in.
Watermelon and fried chicken, why is it offensive to black people?
(Read this to learn about more harmful black stereotypes)
Watermelon and fried chicken was once a staple of income for the freed post civil war. Black farmers wanting to earn money , grew watermelon. It was actually very popular to the point a certain group of people didn’t like that.
Watermelon also wasn’t just something for us to sell. It was a sign of liberty and freedom for us.
______________________________________________
Chicken , chicken was the only livestock slaves could keep or own. Another source of income that eventually was stolen. You know that iconic restaurant KFC is a good example of this. (Search up the origins of the KFC recipe.)
Another item painted in a negative light, and used against us to justify hatred and dehumanization.
(Read this to see the full extent of how this can affect someone of color and more history.)
We have slowly started taking back a lot of things, but with the way these once liberated items been painted to stain. Shame only follows us.
It had never once graced my little head, growing up in the south. Eating these foods with joy that they made me into something others looked down upon.
I was just a child , enjoying food that was made/grown by the people I loved. I love my family, and I love my community.
Thank you all for reading this , and remember to do research and ask. It will not hurt your pride to ask someone of color if what you created/wrote is harmful in any way.
We will not be upset with you for asking us questions regarding our history. But we will , if you intentionally ignore the struggles and causes.
Plus , some aren’t always willing to share their experiences/history. Respect that decision too. We don’t owe anyone anything if we don’t feel like your intentions aren’t great.

I love how Gerald was trying to keep Shadow from spoiling anything about the future meanwhile literally everything Shadow says and does around Maria is the biggest death flag ever

Another reason why I’m a firm believer in letting Bruce get old is because the idea of him looking and his dark haired children without his glasses on and genuinely not being able to tell them apart is unparalleled
