It doesn’t matter what skin color a character is in a fan art, fiction, ect.

I’ve had this same damn arguement in Homestuck. Stop making my skin color a part of who I am please. I’m not white—I’m heavily Native American, a fourth of which being Canadian French(Though I wish I had more Canadian as I wish I lived in Canada, herp a derp). People often mistake me for being Mexican, which is fine as I live in Texas and we have more Mexicans then Native Americans.

I’ve been targeted against in racism. Not much, as like I said, lots of Mexicans and other skin colors in Texas.

But since I was little, I kinda realized something about skin color, sexuality, gender, ect.

It doesn’t really matter.

If you don’t make it a big deal(OH THIS PERSONS WHITE, THEY’RE WONDERFUL, or, OH THIS PERSONS BLACK THEY’RE WONDERFUL), it’s not going to be a big deal.

Surface facts about me:

I’m Native American. I’m a lesbian. I’m female.

None of those have any real bearing on my personality, do they?

Social Justice issues, like making people better then others because they have had problems in the world, are stupid.

You want to know the truth of the matter?

Not everything is some sort of overbearing on how bad society is. If someone draws Holly white, that doesn’t mean they’re trying to white wash her. They may have forgotten, or they may just have been lazy. Who really cares?

Skin has nothing to do with who you are. Just how you look. And I have this distinct feeling if someone was drawing a white character black, you wouldn’t bat an eye. Which, by the way, is hypocrisy.

I don’t are if someone draws Holly black, white, or blue. I don’t care if pale-ass Artemis is drawn black, white, or blue.

Because it doesn’t matter. It doesn’t. The more you make it an issue, the more of an issue it becomes.

Now, if someone was saying people drawing Holly dark skinned are all idiotic ass hats or something, that’d be stupid. But that is NOT the case here. There is no real racism(At least, not predominantly here)that I can see in this Fowl tag.

She’s just a fictional character. Her cool-ness has no bearing on her skin tone, and vice versa.

The one good thing that did come out of this though is that I finally remembered what color hair Holly’s is. I couldn’t remember or the life of me. So thanks for that, I guess, and stop assuming I’m racist for simply not seeing the point in focusing on skin color of Holly’s in fan art.
