If I had a nickel for every time I heard a POC English VA was boo'd off of twitter because they said something regrading race within the VA profession/industry, I would have two nickels, which isn't a lot but it's unfortunate that it happened twice.

Shit like this is why I started @blackfandom.bsky.social / blackfandom.tumblr.com. It was so POC, specfically black people in fandom, could have a voice and discuss issues of racism without the fear of being dismissed or ignored, Something that has become more common, unfortnately.

Anybody that comes onto this thread to tell me some "Erm actually, you're a (WHATEVER THE FUCK)" will be blocked on sight. You can say what you want about me for this, but I will say you missed the point of the entire thread if that is your response to anything I say here.

I wanted to rant about politics and fandom real quick so if you're one of those "Politics don't belong in fandom" and "Fandom isn't activism" people I actually do recommend you read this thread because while this is addressed to multiple types of people, this is specfically for you.

its weird how people think just bc something is in fandom spaces means it isnt a “real” issue like idk call me crazy but misogyny/racism/lgbtphobia/etc. are very real serious issues even when its happening in fandom spaces

Another thing to note: If you believe you or a friend of yours was wrongfully added to this list, please inform me (best bet go to my main/@glitchyexists.bsky.social ). It will also help your cases if you provide evidence so I know if I can believe you or not.

Guidelines:
- Evidence of actions must be presented whether it be links or UNFABRICATED screenshots (both will be better).
- ^ Do not accuse somebody of racism without proper evidence.
- Must be an unresolved issue or their apology was fake as fuck (aka they apologized but still do it)

Hi my fellow black nerds! Although I have my personal beef with the mod lists, I decided to make my own. This one was made for FANDOM RACISTS (aka folks who engage within racist activites within fandom spaces.) If you believe anyone should be added to this, let me know (check thread for guidlines)

Haters: If you want black characters in media, make your own. Leave our cherished media alone. Stop making characters black when they weren't black to begin with.

Black community: Okay

*Black media made with black characters by black creatives*

Haters: Why are all the characters black????

Just saying I feel like you shouldn't speak about racism in fandom or at least say you support POC fandom folks and then turn around and say shit like "ACAB includes fandom police" or agree with anyone with that mindset.

Note: #blackfandom is the tag for fandom related post. #blacksky will be added if it's about black people specficially (in which most of the time it will)

#AddToBlackSky since this account exists now

That’s all! If you have any questions, don’t be afraid to ask!
