Very generally speaking, when you see a black man in a piece of media, be it tv show, movie, video game, etc. there’s something you often see a lot of writers do. To go against the stereotype of black men (and black people in general) being dumb and lazy, you’ll see this black male character being smart and an achiever.

The Black Nerd. A common character type, the nerd will always be very interested in all things nerdy: science, video games, mathematics, etc. In an continued effort to combat stereotypes, the Black Nerd will be lack athleticism, probably being asthmatic (the nerdiest of conditions). The Black Nerd will dress smartly, suspenders and bow ties. They’ll always talk smart too, using proper English with complex words.

Now, I don’t have a problem with a black character being a nerd, indeed black people are a people; we aren’t all the same and we all have varying personalities. The problem I have is that too often we see a distinct disconnect between Blackness and the Black Nerd. The Black Nerd doesn’t listen to hip hop or rap, only classical music. The Black Nerd only has white friends, the only other black characters are into not nerdy stuff. The Black Nerd never ever uses AAVE at any time in any context.

And again I must say that Black people, not being a monolith, there are no hard fast rules to being Black. I’m more than sure there are Black people like what I’ve described above, I’m not saying it’s impossible; what I’m getting at is that the only Black Nerd we see. There are Black Nerds that play basketball, that bump Kendrick Lamar, and use AAVE since it’s an ever changing dialect. I’m just saying there’s no one way of being a nerd and no one way of being Black.

Well @dumbey, seems we’re in similar boats

This ain’t about him, this is about Black/Asian solidarity. Focus.

And then we have the Quirky Biracial Black Girl that at this point I feel is just the Black Girl version of the Blerd

Of course there are Black girl characters that are nerds. They just don't show up as often like other women nerd characters in media. Maybe because nerd/geek culture actively gatekeeps women out of these intellectual fields and/or fan spaces? Look at Childish Gambino and other nerds that throw a tantrum seeing Megan Thee Stallion into (the most mainstream) anime titles. That certainly will reflect on tv somehow someway🤷🏾‍♀️

But yeah, the Quirky Biracial Black Girl has been coming about a lot more lately. They are usually biracial because the idea of a monoracial Black girl into nerdy/alt/geeky interests doesn't sound realistic to writers. So clearly they have to be mixed with a nonwhite identity to justify their quirkiness 🙄 8/10 they usually are mixed white cuz that's the only kind of mixed identity available these people can write. Or I guess its more accurate to say they can only write whiteness as that's the default in everything.

Also the reason Black nerd boys don't really face this treatment is cuz the industry still views dark skin as an inherently masculine trait. So it's fine for the boys to be darkskinned or just monoracially Black. The girls, however, gotta be lighter in comparison to still emphasize that whole they are out of ordinary, they're still feminine 😬

That's why I like shows like Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur

A Black nerdy teenage girl who wheres her fro out with love. She's surrounded by a diverse group of friends and family. And she's got a unique nerdy geek side to her that some people don't really get, not even her friends. That's ok, she got friends who are into the same stuff as her, many of which are other Black women!

Clearly she doesn't have to sacrifice her Blackness for the sake of being nerdy. She is a nerdy Black girl. She can be into the roller skating scene (which she incorporates in her Moon Girl alter ego). She can be into cassettes and Black genres of music (which she incorporates in her fights and sources for inspo). Like it ain't hard yall
