There's a whole tumblr dedicated to it: http://carlosisnotwhite.tumblr.com/

Now, sure, some of them do show Carlos as a pale-skinned white dude. But some of them are obviously giving him a darker skintone, or are just a black and white sketchs with no shading and they're STILL given the 'Carlos is not white' shit.

And naturally when people ask how in the fuck can someone be the Color Judge of a character with no official art and when latino/latina complain that not everyone is the same shade, they get lectured about white-washing and colourism and how they're not doing it right.

I took a look and was pretty disgusted by the whole thing.

Yes, Prof. Sycamore does not look like a Latino dude. ANY Latino dude. And brownface is not ok.

But there's a lot of fanart on that blog that does not deseve to be there, either because they're uncolored sketches (with Carlos looking non-white despite the lack of colors), or because the mod's monitor must be failing.

I mean. This is how Santiago's Downtown looks and I can assure you that +95% of the people on this pics are recognizably Latin American non-white-passing while having a wide arrange of... variety.
