"'Disney’s 1989 portrayal of Ariel as white, slender and feminine continues...racially-coded messages that come straight out of 18th & 19th-century European imperial racism'"

Fascinating read on black mermaids and the long legacy of eighteenth-century racism

So what are we? #litodons ? #bookodons ? #eighteenthodons ? I’m not a #histodon though I do like #histodons. #Humanidons is too broad, #Academidons too professional, #Depressiodons and #Neurotidons too accurate. Classify me, dammit.
