Get the tracheal backlash 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!
