listen boycotting grownish because of its litebrite cast is fine. it’s a cute show but I know the premise isn’t for everyone and no ones gonna go the extra mile to watch something they normally wouldn’t watch anyway for some beige ass representation. THAT BEING SAID...yall really called yara “racially ambiguous”??? are you really making this girl defend her blackness when she has done nothing but be pro black this whole time? she isn’t alexandra shipp’s stupid tone deaf ass, or kid flash whose name I forget that agreed with her (and I’m pretty sure yall let what he said slide so uh :/). it’s just funny how 2 weeks ago we were praising her for being a rare unignorant lightskin and now people are calling her “nonblack passing” IM SCREAMING. also...where is it not obvious that she’s black??? I’m confused.
tbh keep this same energy when love, simon comes out if we’re gonna act like this -_- all the black characters are lightskin and they all came to defend al*xandra. hell keep this up w/ all shows featuring solely lightskins. yall will support something with a token lightskin before this, which like I said...its okay I guess. but idk why this particular show has stricken such a personal ire against a teenage girl who doesn’t deserve it. blame the producers not yara...tf is wrong with yall?
