OP
In the first post I declared my race in a friendly little disclaimer, partly in case I picked up a few followers and then somebody found out I was white and got upset or something. I just didn't want there to be a chance for that to be A Thing. The reasoning behind the blog is: a good friend of mine is a panelist for a major black otaku panel at a big Canadian con, so I was lurking around her FB group and I could see people trading information on black anime characters all the time. Just seemed like something people were looking for - so now I do these little daily write-ups with a few screenshots, tagged by gender and stuff. It's meant to be somewhat celebratory, and draw attention to lesser-known characters and anime, and I'm hoping to build it into this really useful sort of lookup thing for anybody with darker skin who wants to play a character with a similar skintone.

You may have guessed that I'm the anon from a few months ago who caused a bit of a shitstorm with her post about selfishly wishing blackface wasn't a thing, so that I could cosplay any character with impunity and the greatest accuracy I could physically hope to achieve. I get to research all sorts of interesting characters for this tumblr. :)
