my entire point is that we as a society have to grow into a reality that makes it *normal* for the people in a book/movie/whatever to be diverse! and we can't do that if the only people that write about them are the specific people from each community. that's not how it works.
always, always support poc and lgbt+ authors and understand that yes, their stories (if about their own community) have more truth and authenticity. but they can coexist with authors from other communities writing about other people that don't resemble themselves +
it's the entire point of writing in the first place. not everything is an autobiography!!! +
i know a lot of people will attack me for saying this, and you're welcome to discuss everything really.
also god there's so many factors, I'm literally gonna write my thesis paper on this and there's So many more things worth mentioning but this will take so long +
