You Have To Look To See

So, during one of the instances of race!fail over the past year and a half, I had a thought that I never posted about and a recent picspam reminded me of.

During the conversations about writers using trite (and usually edible) descriptors for CoC, I remember thinking that part of the problem (at least in my case) is that the media is so white-dominated that authors don't spend enough time just looking at people of different ethnicities.

So I thought it would be a great idea to do a comment spam full of images of people of color. I'll start us off with Adam Moore (I discovered this basball player via multibeautiful, which is a dreamwidth community all about images of non-caucasian beauties).

Yeah, I thought the same thing, actually. The fandom already jokes about Zuko's "breakdance fighting"--the way he flips and handwalks and does elaborate circular leg sweeps, oftentimes in MTV repeated slow motion replay. It'd be a comparatively short step to train a dancer as good as Shum to replicate that style.
