idk some people just feel threatened by anyone being unapologetically themselves even when they aren’t hurting anyone because it brings up the possibility that the rules are made up and the points don’t matter and that’s an uncomfortable thought

Fuck it at this point can y’all actually start supporting indie animation and indie games made by black artists/creators because I’m really getting sick and tired of everyone hyping these racist phase mediocre white people that get 90% of their humor from 2000s newgrounds animations

For the people asking “How am I supposed to find them?” Look them up, it’s that easy.

Here is an entire youtube playlist by Mannof1000Thoughts with a ton of indie animation videos AND a livestream he did where he watched some with the creators!!!

Black Indie Cartoons to watch https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL2xOBojHKMmoATz6odc0Jo0KNcyO0yXJZ&si=XJ-bUub8_CoTEbUO______________________

For games, there are TONS of lists out there like these:

In celebration of Black History Month, here's a roundup of games made by black developers that should be on your radar.

The MIX is celebrating Black game developers by hosting a stream to talk organically about game development from the Black perspective.

Call me a commie if you must, but I just have a hard time believing that we should all be paying the price and dealing with the consequences of choices made by a handful of billionaires.

almost seven years deep into the 2020s this feels less like a retrospective evaluation and more like a prophetic vision

once you notice half of all memes are just a picture of a black person with unrelated text over them you really cannot unsee it

this is actually horrific right? we can all agree about that?

I'd never thought I needed to be paranoid about the fact that photos I share on social media might be turned into memes in a discord run by JuicyBigNut but that's what existing in a public space as a black person is like! not to mention the fact that they don't even know who the man in the picture, yet we know who first spread it and no one has beaten that guy to death yet

videos too. videos of black ppl just speaking with an accent in their normal lives is seen as unserious and comedic. Even little black children are made fun of this way.

it's especially jarring when you're surrounded by AAVE in ur daily life but go on social media to see a video of a black mom talking to her child in AAVE and they're labeled as wild, hilarious, ratchet, ghetto, and the comedy is not found in what's happening but the fact it's happening with black people & AAVE. their life is treated as a minstrel show to white audiences. but to me that's just how ppl talk around here so idk what's so funny.

the way black ppl's movements and speech are made into a joke (or meme) & used as a punchline followed by a laugh track (peak 2000s Disney Channel but also just EVERYWHERE) is so disturbing.

when you see a meme with a black person in it, ask yourself WHY you find it so funny. Is it because of how they're moving or speaking? Is it the accent? Is it because they're so "ghetto/ratchet"? is there even a joke or is the joke blackness?

I wish I could make white people(and not just white Americans) understand how diverse the pre-columbian Americas were. The history, religion, culture, politics was at least as complex as Europe's. There was the full gamut of religions, from monotheists to animists to ancestral religions. There were city building empires, village farmers, nomadic traders, and so many other ways to live. This is all just based on what we know, the fragments left behind and the stories of survivors of an apocalyptic plague. All this before the most extended campaign of genocide in history was waged in an attempt to wipe out those survivors.

Over 500 years spent trying to cut down a whole trunk of human culture.

Do you understand how much poorer our whole species is because of it? Can you imagine where art, religion, and science would be if we still had these vast bodies of knowledge? The stain of the colonial project will never be fully washed clean. We owe more than just the land to those we stole from. We owe them a whole future, a future that could have been brighter for all of us. If only greed and fear weren't allowed to rule this land.
