I fucking love this
it’s so crazy how so many people seem to have no problem with POC roles being taken by people like Scarlett Johansson and Jennifer Lawrence but when it comes to actual POC representation all hell brakes lose! Like god forbid we have a black Ariel, because that would just be so harmful for children, but it’s totally not damaging for Scarlett Johansson to take 8635+ roles written for POC and whitewash them!
