WATTPAD CAST {RANT}
So ya girl was reading some on wattpad. The typical teen fiction shit I'm a sucker for. But I noticed a little trend in all the stories.
Me:
After being on Wattpad for over a year I'm still not seeing any improvement on the diversity of casting.
Here is your typical cast list:
Selena Gomez, Holden Rodent or Barbara Palvin as some type of unique basic sounding name like Bejesus or Telephone or some shit
FRANCISCO LACHOWSKI BECAUSE NO OTHER HOT MOC (men of color) EXIST as one of the top 100 male baby names of 2008 heres the link:
A BLONDE, SKINNY, HEATHER CHANDLER LIKE GIRL as a psycho bully bitch who's school systems is so bad that she hasn't been expelled.
A twenty year old actress white actress as the dead 50 year old mom of the bad dude because apparently every bad boy is Batman.
This is such a huge problem and it shouldn't be an issue anymore. Go, Wattpad had been around for almost 10 fùcking years and all I still see is the same actresses and actors.
I feel like it's sad as we are teenagers around the age of 13-16 that we already see an all white cast as something normal. That should not be instilled in us at such a young age and it's kinda heartbreaking.
Like in real life you'll never find a school that just has all white people. Their are African-Americans, Hispanics and Asians everywhere.
There are so many books that show many POC face claims like one by -fuckedsouls that you can choose from.
I beg of you to check the diversity of your cast before you publish. If they are all white them there's a problems.
And if your writing a book about some magical kingdom where ducks poop rainbows then why is it so weird and difficult to have a cast with POC?
