One thing I’ve started realizing as a Black creator…There's a specific group that doesn’t actually want Black creators to be creative. They want Black creators to create the version of Blackness THEY personally approve of. The moment your art style, characters, inspirations, or storytelling steps outside that box… suddenly... show more

Exactly! When I sent out a casting call for my first comic series, "Verion Keller's Vampire Killers". I sent out the list and images of all the female characters the VA's could audition for, and all of them avoided Yolanda Briggs. We have gotten so unhinged that people are afraid to voice characters if they aren't the correct color for them. This delayed the promotional project because I had to spend days hoping someone could voice her, and at the last moment, a Sista came in to the rescue. I don't care what color you are, I have casted Black VA's to voice White characters and even the opposite. This character gave me so much backlash from that pocket community who demands you represent blackness according to their idea of what Blackness means. Apparently Piccolo can be called Black. - Knuckles can be called Black. - Yoruichi gets called Black. - Piccolo is recognized as black. But when I, an actual Black creator, tell people that Dr. Yolanda Briggs is a Black woman in MY comic universe… suddenly I’m wrong. That’s when I realized this conversation was never actually about “representation.” Website:

Exactly, and I am called the sellout for creating my own comics that don't fit their preferred aesthetic of what they believe blackness should be. These are the same group of people who demand that other cultures validate their existence. But somehow I am the self-hater. There are plenty of Black Creators out there, but since it's not mainstream, none of it counts. Full Video:

No one is forcing anyone to be African or Black. We all know that some Somalis view black skin as a mark of enslavement to Arabs due to the Arab slave trade, so they tend to claim they are not Black.

Black Americans appear to show signs of deep inferiority complex toward Dominicans. This Black man want to fight a Dominican man because he said he wasn’t Black as in ethnicity of Black American. Blacks🇺🇸 like Haitians want proximity to Hispanic Dominicans given that they are Mixed with mostly European ancestry on average. Blacks feel that Dominicans are superior to them which is why they feel offended when Dominicans reject them & don’t let them claim them as “black”. Blacks look up to Latino Dominicans as the better version of themselves. You don’t get so enraged if someone doesn’t want to be part of your group unless you already hate being part of that group but cannot scape it. Blacks feel they are less than and they see hope in Hispanic Dominicans as a people that can represent them as “beautiful black people”. 🇩🇴👇

I’ve come to realize that it doesn’t matter if a black man is married to a black or white woman. If black people don’t want to hear what you have to say, they will find a justification. “You’re too conservative. You’re too Christian. You’re too something.” There’s a mental Olympics around race that black people have to go through, and it can compromise what we say or do.

Russia doesn’t want Black People to vote and they use images of Black women to push the both parties are the same narrative as a form of voter suppression.

Don’t let the other black people convince you that blackness looks a certain way. Don’t try to change your voice, your hair, or your clothes. You are black, and you’re not whitewashed

Just Powerful: “Anybody, especially Black people who are saying that Charlie Kirk was racist, was not for Black people and did not know Black people. I am 💯 convinced that you have never sat through a full debate of his or watched any of his debates with a sound understanding, Black people are always quick to want to be a victim of a situation, that they can’t thrive…”

This moment shifted the entire conversation. Anton Daniels makes a statement. If someone doesn’t identify as Black, what does that mean when they critique Black people, Black culture, and Black communities? This clip is just one moment. The full breakdown ON THE CHANNEL.

Black people who smoke weed think they are not dope fiends. Even though they go to the same dope house that the crackhead would go to get crack. Black weed smokers are not functioning members of the Black Power movement. They just want to go buy Black and Mild to get high

Democrats want the black vote but they don’t want the black population to grow. Which is VERY odd coming from the party that claims they care about black people.

Sister ERICA is right once again. They want black, but they do not want it from black folks.. the exploitation of black culture in the name of prophet.

Large group of armed black people chanting “black power!” in the street. They want reparations in blood, not money.

“Nothing brings out the inner Klansman of a white liberal faster than a Black person who refuses to obey.” White liberals are calling Black conservatives traitors. Sellouts. The N word. Because in their framework, Blackness comes with mandatory politics attached. White liberals fund the social justice movements. Tell Black women their men are dangerous. Push abortion as the number one civil rights issue of the day — then go home to their husbands and children. The same life they’re telling Black women they shouldn’t want. Black people are hip to the scam now. “You’re not going to be able to shame Black people into compliance. You’re not going to be able to disrespect them to the point where they’re so hurt by your lack of approval that they’re going to start advocating for their own replacement.” The hard bigotry of low expectations kept Black communities stagnant for decades. It’s how they control.

Star Wars Visions Episode BLACK is the result of giving creators full creative freedom to do whatever they want. Ohira crafted something special. 12 minutes of uninterrupted animation goodness. I couldn't ask for more. It is perfect.

History matters but it should be a mindset trap. "We have a lot of black leaders who are stuck in the past." "They want to blame white people for everything. Every shortcoming they want to blame on the white man." "We have to move forward man." "Today's white folks don't have nothing to do with that." "Majority of white people are not racist." He isn't wrong. Black leaders, specifically black liberals are NOT helping the black community.

When I say that a specific group wants me to create black stories and characters that represent them. They typically mean creating stereotypical hood culture while downplaying my own creations at Venus Orion Comics. I was told that my art caters to Asian people and I'll never be accepted by them. Who said I am looking for acceptance from anyone? I create out of passion, so even if no one ever embraces my work, I will continue to create because I love it! When I create stories and worlds, I create them for myself. I don't create them with an audience in mind. I allow the audience to decide whether they resonate with it.
