@gaby_wald While I like the sentiment, I dislike that it appears to be a white woman telling a person of color that she's better and more advanced in her understanding of right and wrong than him. It just... don't quite sit right.
@domo What is exactly the context to apply ?
(I don't see the aspect "color / white" at first and at all !)
@gaby_wald So the context is colonization. White people from European countries and colonies often imply they have the right to rule people of color because they know better. The concept is called pinkwashing or rainbowwashing and gets used as an excuse to invade and colonize locations.
The sentiment that they're trying to use here, is not bad, but it would have been better to use a woman of color in the white woman's place, because otherwise it can appear racist at first glance.
@domo You're correct for a Earth only point of view !
Here's pictures from a scifi tv serie from StarWars franchise. There is racism / specism too in that fiction universe too ! (Do you see other intelligent species around ?)
But here it is speaking about racism and democracy ! And the two people you are speaking of are equals !
@gaby_wald I know it is fictional. I am stating how it is perceived regardless though. The series itself is also written and directed by many white people who made the choice to use a white woman for that scene. The external perception of racism is not one you can simply explain away. Fantasy worlds still bare a reflection of the real worlds and times in which they were written.
You can simply accept that and say, "oh yeah, I hadn't considered how it might be perceived. I hope they cast more people of color in scenes like this in the future to avoid that perception"
