sure, let's have a black woman be basically a caricature, call her black father a nappy-headed slave, claim she never cared for him even though the past two seasons make it very clear that's not true, say she hates him more than her rapist and the people who murdered her, claim she intentionally and maliciously lied about being threatened with rape, say she prefers her white father (who horrifically abused her for 30 years btw) over him, and then have said fathers not show a single intense emotion over it afterwards. you know, since we can have characters just do ANYTHING now.
Captain Jack Sparrow (27 yrs old). A few weeks before his first mate asks him to share the bearings of the treasure of Isla de Muerta ;)
I figured his hair should be definitely shorter than when we first meet him in CotBP. The shirt is probably cleaner too. I dont do the white man dreads but added just a little braid and a few trinkets on his hair (including the piece of eight), since he is basically just starting.
No long goatee braids yet, he will get there. And of course the little earring from his original concept art.
all this explicit body horror only being reserved for black bodies in this show on top of the racially charged language and the bastardization of the black characters idk anymore man
