Re: Dark skin headcanons

[(Anonymous)]

I agree with you there is a difference. It's that to me, it reads as the latter and not the former as you suggest.

A significant and intentional lack of significant factors, changes, or events can be just as telling as there being piles of them.

If a character never has a single issue with money, paying for anything, or feelings of financial insecurity, it would be a conflict to headcanon them as constantly poor. If a character never has any scene where their race or culture or how others view them as non-default comes up in a span of so many years, it would be a conflict to headcanon them as a minority since they lack that universal minority experience, especially so when the text points out other characters around them are minorities, when they are.

I just don't agree that it makes it an impossible or invalid interpretation of the text. If we're arguing about what the most likely interpretation of the text - what is the One True Deal with the text - I completely agree that your argument is powerful and probably irrefutable. I don't really care that much about which interpretation is most probable, though, or One True. I don't have a problem with dealing with multiple conflicting headcanons, even. Maybe not at the same time, but. You don't have to believe that a headcanon is the single correct interpretation of the truth to adopt it and use it.

Also, I would hope that anyone doing a headcanon like this is going to be able to go through and find some textual features that they can point to and link to the headcanon and make use of in that sense.

We aren't arguing about what the most likely interpretation is. I don't care what interpretation is most probable, either. I simply don't see Harry the Indian boy as a possibility, based on my experiences as a POC and the experiences of every other POC I know. If there is a shared POC experience, it's being treated or confronted with the fact that you're non-default and non-majority, and if that never, ever happens, that's... simply unbelievable to me.

Again, it's like telling me that a boy who has never wanted for anything or stressed about how to pay anything, for whom money has never been an issue, has been poor all along.

We'll just have to agree to disagree.
