When a non-black person criticizes a black person, he may feel there is a need to disprove the influence of racism on his opinions. So, he proves he's not racist by citing another black person who also criticizes the first black person. Stephen Colbert coined the term on September 24th, 2009.
Blackwash can be used as either a noun or a verb.

Mr. White: I've been saying for a long time that Mr. Black's policies are terrible. An African-American writer from the New York Times criticized him too.
Mr. Black: Don't blackwash me. Why do you need to point out that the writer is black?

A word that doesn’t even exist in the english language, and something that was made up and claimed to be racist.
‘Blackwashing’ was originally supposed to be used as representation, and people would take characters and change their skintone and hair style. A lot of people have claimed it as racist because you were ‘changing’ their race, when, no.. they weren’t, they were adding, not taking away. Sometimes people forget blasians exist…
Also, these same people who were doing this, switched up immediately when people were hating on it and it’s fucking annoying when you dumbasses do that.

Blackwashing is a non existent term made by colorist, chronically online white people to hate on people who make black/blasian edits.

Something that doesn't exist, because nothing ever turns black by washing. So more appropriate terms for the act of turning white characters black would be "blackpolluting", "blacksmutting" or "blackstaining".
