Artfight season is always difficult because I can post all the disclaimers I want asking people not to whitewash my Black characters, it still happens and I just never know how to answer... The worst being when I can tell they did their best but are not educated. I've been thinking about adding "if you're not confident you can depicting my Black ocs accurately and respectfully, pick another one" but I'm worried about coming off as bitchy, and part of me want to push people out of their comfort zone and "force" them to consider and give the same amount of care to Black characters.

#i think we should put this post next to the interview where she said she doesn't want to eat the food in the series cuz she's a picky eater#and file them both under 'you don't know an artist from their work'#and maybe you don't need to!#maybe all you need to know is that ryoko kui is Good At What She Does#idk I don't like the implication that artists (and women especially?) can only create from personal life and feelings#some people have imagination and craft#kind of a tangent but. there you go.

I almost made a post about this the other day (unless i actually did and totally forgot) but there’s so many
