CC: :O I just realized

These kids are usually from the 14 year to 17 year age range

I’m nineteen

I’m pretty sure TWO YEARS AGO I still knew it was incorrect and problematic to lighten a character’s skin color and make shitty excuses for it.

Just saying

I don’t see where the whole “they’re children” bs is coming into play.

Also someone said in an ask we just received:

“If young dark children of color are old enough to internalize racism, white children and light skinned children are old enough to learn NOT to do that. Period.”

Brilliant. Perfectly fucking worded.

    Why aren’t the feelings of children of colour never taken into consideration? Oh they are young and you are being mean...
