Get the blackassing mug.Blackwashing is a term used when a person deliberately changes a (usually) white character, or person, to be included in the black race, as, to (in most cases) show more representation of the black community.
It is NOT okay to commit to blackwashing for more representation or any other reason. Blackwashing is just as bad as whitewashing. You are changing a character's ethnicity for YOUR OWN liking. It is unfair and showing the person needs to be in your community to be good. Please leave peoples' skins alone; they are perfect the way they ARE.

POC person: "We have the right to be blackwashing, it shows more of us."
Another POC person: "I am POC but believe that is unfair. We should not change someone's skin colour for any case."

Twitter really is something, so much hate, especially to artists. A lot of “art fixers” really enjoy BlackWashing, it’s a lot more common than you’d think.

Get the BlackWashing mug.Blackwashing is when a person changes a character's previous race to black. Blackwashing is just as bad as whitewashing, and it's a fact. The only acceptable reason is if you do that solely for fun. In terms of representation, it sucks ass because creating a black original character is not that hard and absolutely not problematic, unlike looking down at a specific race and deciding the character is better when it's black.
(for representation)
A: I fixed this art and now the character looks better.
B: Dude that's just straight up blackwashing.
A:"Blackwashing'' doesn't exist, you're just racist that you won't accept POC representation!
A: Besides, this character looks better as black.
B:And that's the problem, you just think a certain race is superior than others when really everyone should be equal. This ''representation'' doesn't help with anything but offend those who have the same race as the character's original design.
(for fun)
A: Hi check out my drawing of this character as a black person, i think they look neat.
B: Oh, looks cool but why did you change their race?
A: It's nothing really, i just thought of drawing this for fun.
B: Alright, besides that's a nice drawing!
A: Thank you!

Get the Blackwashing mug.blackwashing is taking a (usually) white character and turning it into a black person. but however, it is literally NEVER okay to take someone's character, and change it without permission. neither is it okay to take an oc, based off of someone irl, and change it for what you think it should be. making a black character is representation enough, you soaked boar.
person one: "if you think blackwashing exists, you are racist."
person two: "dude what the hell, did you just assume if someone was racist based off of that? that's cringe."

Get the blackwashing mug.Taking a character from a movie, TV show, etc of a certain ethnicity and replacing them with a black representation of that original character

Get the Blackwashing mug.1) A process of turning a non-black person ethnically black (usually in anime fandoms)
Doing this to ethnically Asian characters (usually in anime as Asians barely get good media representation) gets rid of Asian representation (yes Asians can get mad at this).

person 1: This person turned this ethnically Asian character ethnically black. This blackwashing fanart is good :o
person 2: Yet it's racist when they turn an ethnically black person Asian 💀
