I hate cartoon discourse as much as any problematic fire sign woman of color does but I’m really concerned. These cartoon creators have figured out that adding a few main characters of color ups the profits they make. Back when I was a kid, many of the cartoons I watched didn’t really have nonwhite characters, and some had a few amazing nonwhite characters. But I never had to deal with seeing Black or Latinx or Asian characters being killed off, mistreated, and humiliated the way they are in children’s cartoons now. It’s frustrating and upsetting to think that this wave of killing off black women characters and other characters of color has affected children’s media too because it’s so harmful to kids of color. I wasn’t exposed to this racist trope until I became an adult - kids nowadays are seeing it more than ever.

And say what you will, but media can absolutely have adverse effects on child and teen psychosocial and identity development. In fact in the developmental psychology literature and social-cognitive literature, there are multiple theories about how television and media impact identity formation for children and teens.

Imagine watching media meant for you that lures you in with characters who share your racial or cultural background, and then seeing them turned into jokes and then killed off.

I never had to deal with that as a kid, but kids of color have to now, and it’s terrible. Just one of the many adverse consequences of white creators monetizing and profiting off of racial representation.
