Whitewashing is the alteration of a characters skin tone, from black/brown to white. This is also racist due to the harmful anti black history whitewashing black characters has. In America (euro-centric features were seen as a beauty standard that bpoc (black poc) couldn’t fit. Changing a black character to look white removes the little representation for black people while also conveying an anti black message.

Get the Whiteface mug.A fun activity where you put on PFDs (layman; "life jacket"), jump in a rubber raft with little PVC paddles and float down the river....no big deal...until you get flipped over, hit on the head with a rock, hit in the teeth with a paddle, flipped out of the raft, pushed out of the raft, or are simply scared out of your mind and go into fight-or-flight mode with those class 5 rapids coming around the bend.
I was having a fun time whitewater rafting until we hit this class 4 sideways, our raft flipped over, I got sucked into the rapid and popped out about 40 feet away (still holding on to my paddle)...After whitewater rafting (which was a real rush) driving on the beltway doesn't seem so bad.
