You’re telling me white dude writers told a trans black woman actor and a Latina actor how women would act in their situation….. Oh god now I see the problem

This should be mirrored with that gif of Aja King (Michaela) from HTGAWM.

Where she had told the writers that Michaela slapping Lynn Whitfield’s character isn’t realistic because culturally that scene wouldn’t be accurate for Black Americans. And not only did the non black writers listen to her but they also changed the fucking scene.

We are so powerless….

this is neoliberalism in a motherfucking nutshell
