“How could we possibly make a monoracial Black girl character as the main lead though 🥺? She can’t be funny AND into fashion, that’s unrealistic and won’t appeal to the kids!”

clawdeen’s parents are both black in the live action in the animated series btw! she’s from a multicultural family, not a mixed race family.

So what I’m getting at is that the creators either don’t know the difference between race and ethnicity, so they think being a latina was a whole other race they gotta continuously emphasize by making her biracial-mixed(yes they emphasized she is mixed both with the stupid werewolf/human plot and she is latina). Or her mom is just an ambiguous brown woman.

Her dad is black and Haitian Creole, her mom is black and Mesoamerican. It hasn’t really been developed as her mom was only just introduced in the most recent episode. Clawdeen isn’t African American, she’s African LatAm/afro-latina. That’s her background, and it’s a part of the story and her identity as a character. That being said, they’re still barely doing anything. There is so much more they SHOULD be doing and as the show develops, hopefully they get their shit together and listen to what issues people have with it.

If I may add, as an ADHD person if you insult (even jokingly) something I enjoy, I will no longer enjoy that thing as much. Every time I watch that show you called cringe I remember that you did that. You said the writing was unfunny, so now I don’t laugh at the jokes as much, even alone, and I feel like I shouldn’t enjoy it anymore if it’s bad. (And then I also believe you think I’m unfunny and my sense of humor is just bad) So I have to rationalize “Ok I know this part is awkward but I like it a little sometimes” in my head to justify my enjoyment, and that just makes the whole experience less fun. I’ll never express strong interest in something around you again.
