here’s a thread of lgbt films with poc representation
disclaimer: i’m using the poc definition of anyone who isn’t white or european. while some of these movies have characters that are light-skinned, they have other characteristics that set them apart from white people like their culture, language or physical attributes.
i’m also using the term to refer to communities that are known to have been marginalized, opressed or are considered minorties, resulting in their lack of representation in the film industry hence why i’m making this thread
