The only caveat I have to add is that I thought the whole racewank thing blew up when a white author had said the key to writing minority characters was that they're all just people, write them as people. And then there was an explosion of 'no no no, they're not the same as you, different experiences, privilege' etc. All of those things are true in pieces, but when it all came down like an avalanche, it did seem to be a catch-22 of "you can't write POC without understanding [blank]" and "you can't even understand [blank] because you're not."

whew.

I was beginning to think I was the only one who saw that but I was too chickenshit to even say anything because...wow...talk about avalanche of shit on my head? Yeah.
