Is this sarcasm? Because POC absolutely does not mean only African-American irl. Also, I'm pretty sure no one's convinced Korra's black. The issue is more whether she's a fantasy race, Inuit/Eskimo, or white (for the dumbasses).

Here's the Wikipedia article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Person_of_color

Otherwise, I agree that it's really stupid that Korra's darker skin makes her super important. Unless there are a fuckload of Inuit/Eskimos out there who are coming out of the woodwork to take joy in a girl who kind of looks like them. Which would actually be awesome.

then why isn't this hoopla going on about any other character in the show? or hey, about Aang in Avatar? when ATLA originally came out it didn't seem revolutionary that the main character was clearly modeled after a Tibetan monk. It wasn't revolutionary then that the main character was "POC" (it took the movie mess for people to care about it at all).

In Legend of Korra it somehow doesn't seem revolutionary that the chief of police is Chinese or that the richest man around is Japanese or anything else. the only thing that matters? "OMG KORRA IS A POC U GUYS"!!!

Ergo, I conclude that POC=people with dark skin and that the official definition only exists so that people who use the term can pretend that they aren't racist and only care about people with dark skin.

Because Aang had this argument too, complete with racist shits like you claiming he shouldn't be considered a PoC because "he is white". You lying about it doesn't change that.

I love the butthurt from you people, though. Having to acknowledge that PoC exist sucks for you, huh? Poor kid.
