So basically, animal crossing added hairdos from black culture, and white people put them on their character in game, and people are genuinely going nuts about it.
I understand that argument, that being said structurally it could be applied to almost anything. I kind of understand the other argument about having to fight for black hairstyles to be accepted in white spaces, but I just can’t see that it does a sufficient amount of harm for it to be worth fighting about.
I think that the US context for these things is very important. I also think that fights for acceptance and understanding are ones we should have.
