“I started painting in the madhouse, where I learnt how to translate emotions, fear, violence, hope, and joy into painting. It was through creation that I discovered the sombre depths of depression, and how to overcome it.” - Niki de Saint Phalle

I get rly sad that so many nonblack artists get scared of making black ocs because they "don't wanna be racist" but trust me with a bit of research and viewing black individuals with personalized style and autonomy, it makes the process easier.

I think ultimately if you are unwilling to force yourself to unlearn racial biases especially antiblackness then I just find your reasoning extremely lame. even my black ocs are from different diasporas besides American only. I just find any excuse upsetting atp because it feels like the fear of being racist or making a caricature overrides wanting to genuinely depict people like myself. it feels like you just avoid blackness all together. please engage in black art more, make more black friends, and please include us, especially in your art.
