black bleaching

1: the opposite of white washing

2: adding unnecessary PoC to a media series or historical adaption

3: netflix adaptation's pandering to black people

4: when a character or multiple characters without a reason or story is included and just so happens to be a PoC

hovering the bleachers

moving around in generally the right area;

playing it safe, covering your ass, overthinking the meaning of something to have multiple options to fall back on that are believed to be approximately correct.

(having guessed the meaning of an unfamiliar word with many synonyms based on context clues, asking if any were correct, and learning they were all at least decently accurate:)
