As a historian and aspiring anthropologist I will never understand why people do things like this. Like, it’s racist af but somehow no one realizes this?

You can’t erase something about a character as integral as his race and everything that means, ESPECIALLY when he was alive in the Deep South. Like…without everything he experienced he doesn’t end up who he is. Idk, I’m high af and in my feels. Thank you for coming to my ted talk. 😂

I’m a pasty white bitch but it’s always been an instant skip or block when people whitewashed him in art and fic! Like, that’s an integral part of who he is!

Big mood.
