it’s just weird to see so many people constantly bring up the fact that edwina is 1/4 white whenever they compare edwina and kate in anyway. there is definitely the underlying implication that edwina is not brown enough or something. and this insistence to label and quantify how brown a person is not only weird, it is very much based on american-centric race discourse.

#bridgerton #pls go back to calling her a gold digger #i want to say anyone who is non-indian should stop calling edwina 1/4 white #but tbh now i think that term needs to be gate-kept from everyone #like oh my god do you even know your own history #.... there are plenty of indians some of whom have probably never even left india who very likely have a white grandfather or great grandfat #... there are plenty of indians some of whom have never been outside of india but have a white grandfather or great grandfather #ofc lots of these were not happy stories #but like none of you would be able to tell who had a white grandparent and who didnt #like im going to be honest none of #none of what happened on the show between kate and edwina was a microaggression like ive seen people on twitter argue #and if you think it was its bc your brain has been rotted by terminally online american race politics
