THREAD:
The way to win an argument by cheating is to willfully misrepresent an opponent's view to something objectionable. #DignidadLiteraria challenges systemic racism in the publishing industry but racism apologists insist we are mad at a white woman writing Mexican characters.
First of all, you are late. POC settled THAT argument years ago. Anyone can write anyone, but you need to:
DO YOUR HOMEWORK
CHECK YOUR PRIVILEGE
CHECK YOUR WORK W/ THE PEOPLE YOU WROTE ABOUT
which Jeanine Cummins didn't do+this is why we are in this mess.

Once more for the racism apologists: no one is saying white people can't write POC characters.
