POC representation

[Iscah]

I think there’s more, but I don’t pay attention to who’s what color I just see them as characters. If you need to count how many of what color or race there are then there’s something wrong with you.

I think it's one of those things that only sticks out to you if you're constantly seeing people who don't look like you in the media. I'm not in that situation, so that's just my understanding from what others have said.

And yeah, if you're not in that position and therefore don't think of it then it's hard to firstly remember to aim for that character variety, but also to know how far to go with it. I'm not familiar with [X], so should I write a character who is [X] and would it be taken as representing them badly? Is that better or worse than not at all?
