hey bri, i wanted to ask your opinion on a kind of hot button issue in cosplay. i look up to you a lot so i really value your point of view. how do you feel about white people cosplaying characters of color? i'm not talking about using methods to change their skin color, but just wearing the cosplay alone. i've been struggling with the idea of cosplaying a character with a skintone darker than mine but don't want to over-step the social boundaries of the community. thanks ahead of time! <3
Hi! I’m awful at answering Tumblr asks in a timely manner, apparently! If you’re still looking for the answer, I actually cover it in this article I wrote a while back (it’s #6) It’s a kinda lengthy piece, but my answer is there and it hasn’t changed :)
