Star Wars: Attack of the Clones - (3/?)

Note from OP:

I'm retracting the Mace Windu meme from this post ("I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy/I would. Pussy.”)

This was posted 2 months ago and has been shared quite a bit, so I suppose it's too late, but still I regret creating and sharing that one so the best I can do is add this to the original post.

I've realized that when I made that one

I was projecting the personalities of some of Samuel L. Jackson's other famous characters onto Mace Windu, and

Not only was it not accurate to his character, but it was veering into the "Angry Black Person" stereotype/trope.

I hate the idea of perpetuating racist stereotypes in stuff I make, and goodness knows there's enough racism and stereotypes in Star Wars as it is, and in the structural racism of our society (which I benefit from as a white person.)

Here’s a really good post I saw a few days ago, discussing Mace Windu’s character in the fandom, I highly recommend it:

David talks SW

Hell, let's add it all! Excellent points made in some of the reblog tags and I just had to share them cuz they're too well-said and importan

Also, here's a great article I highly recommend, discussing race and stereotypes in Star Wars
