(click flag for redesign) transcript for screenreaders: luz noceda, redesign by @lovemelodii (me). he/him, afro-dominican. intersex, non-binary, lesbian.
hey goobers. i did it. im actually redesigning the owl house. "well kaseko! why do you feel the need to redesign these characters?!" i am a black person who felt misrepresented by the owl house's designs of black characters. the designers neglected the afrocentric features black people have and dont even make the characters look their race. instead of just complaining on gaehive, i took matters into my own hands and added the afrocentric features toh team disregarded. "but its just the art style of the show!" this doesn't mean they have the excuse to misrepresent minority groups. you ignoring a clear flaw of the designs just because of an "art style" contributes to the misrepresentation poc face. and i have SEEN redesigns in toh style. it's possible to be done. they just didnt do it. plus if your art style misrepresents poc..... change it?! "but you didnt need to change their sexualities/genders!" yeaah i didnt. but i want to represent a wider range of lesbians. every time a lesbian is in media, they always are she/her binary women. i dont feel represented by that, soooooo yeah. youre getting a mix of lesbians.... stay mad. "but it goes against canon!" i do not care............. i literally do not care......
