Melanie, 24, Bi, African-American. Taehyun's my bias, Yeonjun's my bias wrecker. I try to be loyal to my bias, BUT THAT DOESN'T WORK!!!

I have a bone to pick…

Why in most books/ imagines/ head-canons with a black reader the reader/character are mostly portrayed as either— pregnant, broke, trying to fend for for their family alone, in horrible relationships, aggressive, doing drugs, pregnant AND broke at the same time, ghetto, live in a run down neighborhood, loud, makes bad decisions…the list goes on! I want to see/read black characters who are— sensitive, loving, bougie/confident, rich, successful, one with superpowers (definitely more supernatural ones), mafia leader (idk), in a loving strong relationship, just something that doesn’t feed into every horrible stereotype that was placed upon us. And of course it’s ok to write about struggling because we all struggle in life but through the whole book?…

Do better please. That includes black writer like myself or just any writer that have black characters in general.
