Normalize making your good guys poc and the bad guys white bc that's honestly how it is irl
white people go like “is anyone going to redesign this nonhuman evil character as a poc?” and not wait for an answer
#I'm just saying#big hero 6#LITERALLY did it#and it was more accurate and impactful than if the bad dude was just a generic poc man bc big corps can't draw curls worth shit#i mean look at Tiana#the only time she was allowed her hair down was YEARS LATER after her movie came out#learn how to draw poc hair. learn how to avoid stereotypes. and yeah. you're allowed to write people who aren't your race#that's how we get diversity.#the amount of OTHER WHITE PEOPLE “correcting” us on how we suddenly can't write poc bc it's “racist”????#YOU DO REALIZE IT'S MORE RACIST NOT TO HAVE THEM RIGHT???#poc are allowed to have cool powers and be excited and childlike#they're allowed to have their own character quirks and be a little bit rude without being the villain#they're ALLOWED TO BE PEOPLE DAMNIT#stop being weird about it#do the work.#stop trying to rework stereotypes that are made to be harmful#anyways if anyone needs me I'm going to go watch Big Hero 6#and probably The Dragon Prince#and if anyone else has some other recs with poc leads i am absolutely open to them#please give me your recs#i beg#thank you
