Here's a solution: encourage more black kids to learn how to be a writer and they can write books with black characters......win-win


That would be the opposite of keeping it real.

But what is the other "win" in this hypothetical?

Whitey does get blamed for someone else's shortcomings.

My son had a children's book about a kid who dreams of becoming a professional basketball player and succeeds as an adult. Not a white person in the entire book.

One has to be careful when illustrating a minority race so as to avoid accusations of stereotyping and racism. Maybe these writers/illustrators/publishers are just playing it safe.

Well... With 68% of America being white and 75% of the characters being white, we're not too far off.

Someone needs to do a children's book about how slavery really started. There won't be any whites in that book because whites didn't start slavery.

There will be muslim Arabics and black Africans in the book on how slavery started. With no supply there can be no demand. notice that "supply" comes first in the phrase "supply and demand"

I'm writing a sickle cell anemia children's book and all the characters look like they came out of a Swedish daycare brochure.

Maybe exceptionally white means ginger with freckles? I know that when I picture "exceptionally white", an ugly freckled face ginger with bright arse orange hair comes to mind.


Or dark auburn hair.
