A folly, a foible and tumblr
Hey there hi there hello there how are ya!
Wanted to make this post because I tried to answer an ask from @africaneuropean and tumblr deceived me and then deleted my second answer.
So! Thanks to this lovely person I've been informed that the frat name I chose for the frat in oh, try to break me down is actually the name of an existing frat which is the first black fraternity!
I used a random frat name generator, and obviously didn't do my due diligence and research existing frats before writing. So because Ryan isn't black, Shane isn't human (but does not have a deeper skin tone) and Gabe is not black; and because the other frat members are minor characters; and because I don't want to co-opt historical real black accomplishments for fictional non-black people I'm going to change it!
Thank you so much for letting me know! I truly appreciate getting comments like this and I don't think it's nitpicky to point out anything that doesn't sit right in my works. My fandom space will always be one which is open to comment, critique, discourse, and correction.
