found your blog after a few research about sana’s character in skam italia and i love it ?? i just read an article about the showrunners not casting non-white ppl to perfom the characters of the og and .. YOU’RE FUCKING RIGHT! as a mixed black italian girl ( yes, we do exist y’all racist people out there ) i’m so so MAD about the casting, starting from sana. THEY’RE ALL WHITE ?? like, what the fuck ?? schools and society in italy it’s not like that in our country !! 1/2

2/2 actually, there’s a lot of moroccan and latino descendants in our classes. ( i’m going to spill some tea: italians don’t procreate that much and often it is say that our classes are filled bc of all the immigrants that lives here ) for example, in my class there are ONLY 6/7 italians -- and we’re like .. 18 ?? ten of us are POC !! and you, ludovico, you cast an ALL WHITE CAST ?? WITH ALL OF THE XENOPHOBIA THAT’S GOING ON ?? AND THE RACISM ?? skam italia you failed me. 

That’s such a nice thing to hear after we’ve been hearing for ages how italy is mostly white.

Would you rather have totally diffrent skam with all new characters diffrent seasons or same characters but adapted to new countries?

Definitely the first one, this would allow more leeway in adjusting to the countries and less pressure to be similar or mirror the original which I know many of the creators are dealing with currently. Plus fresh stories/characters are always needed and we can get new perspectives thrown out there so long as the main goal is to reach the youth of that specific country. - mod re

You know I have to laugh because I'm remember Skam It@lia stans defending them not having poc and then white washing Sana because the country is white. Literally every single version except has poc and not white wash Sana including the ones in predominantly white countries (OG skam, Druck, France, NL, and Spain) so what is Skam It@lia excuse? I also heard they removed Mahdi

The same old washed up excuses everybody uses to not be as diverse as the world truly is. Like we get it move along. They did unfortunately keeps getting more and more white - mod re

Ugh i feel your ask about William. He's such a white boy that it wouldn't really make sense to cast him as a poc

like mod jennifer stated i’d rather not see that. take a look at the way people responded to og jonas vs skamfr’s yann even though their lines were copy/paste. - mod re
