There's something to be said when I encourage the creation and support of ORIGINAL BLACK CHARACTERS and this is the response.

How about we fix the representation problem MY MAKING OUR OWN REPRESENTATION THAT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE HAND ME DOWNS?

Why is this a concept so hard? https://twitter.com/vamptaro/status/1312503193348182016
"We don't have enough representation."

"I have some original characters that I created. Let's make more."

"No, the only way to do it is by reusing characters that aren't Black."

Fucking WHAT?
I'm getting Eric July's point more and more now.

Why are we settling with hand-me-downs? Just....why?

There's a whole world out there for us to create and show off our stories but....just WHY?
