As much praise as The Bad Batch is getting for improved writing and increased stakes, it's important to remember #UnwhitewashTBB and the valid critiques that fans of color and Jewish, disabled, and ND fans had about the series and the ways it's harmed them.

Frankly, fans' concerns over bigoted writing and portrayals should have been taken seriously and taken into account when writing + designing the second and third seasons.

In a perfect world, there never would have been whitewashing. There never would have been ableism and antisemitism, either. The creators would have seriously examined the Bad Batch from ALL angles, not just the ones that make the show fun or look good.

Unfortunately, the series has its glaring issues, and they were not corrected by the time the final season was set to air.

However, other creators in #StarWars can learn from this. They can examine their own unconscious biases and avoid, for instance, making a genius a white man with a British accent, while his brawns over brain counterpart can only be read as a man of color.

They can look into harmful tropes for the marginalized people they do want to represent and head in a different direction. They can change. They can improve. They can guarantee that when they say #StarWarsIsForEveryone, they mean it.

Every, I mean every, angry Star Wars bro on YouTube right now… before any show or episode is even released. Prisoners of some idealized canon that was never perfect. #StarWars #StarWarsFandom #GCannon #ComicBookGuy #StarWarsIsForEveryone #TheAcolyte

#maythe4thbewithyou It's hard to believe #starwars was such a phenomenon, it has its' own holiday! And it's celebrated all over the world, including #costarica🇨🇷. I celebrated by going to several banks this morning, which had better Covid19 measures in place than our local clinic. #starwarsday #starwarsmemes Zarcero, Costa Rica. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #bohemiancostarica #zarcero #zarcerocostarica #costaricagram #instacostarica #princesleia #starwarsedit #maythe4th #maythe4thbewithus #thestarwarsnerd #starwarslovers #starwarsislife #starwarsisforeveryone #starwarsisthebest #starwarsisreal #maytheforcebewithyoualways #maytheforcebewithme (at Star Wars Universe) https://www.instagram.com/p/COeJhkyh2C7/?igshid=19xhylf5bh5i7

#shepropchallenge day 22: a cosplay you still need good photos of I have a couple costumes that only have cell phones photos and that I’m home hoping to do actual photoshoots with, including this one, but there’s a serious reason I’ve selected Rey for today. A few months ago Magnoli Clothiers posted a racist parody of Born In the USA on YouTube (one line said COVID was “born in a Wuhan Lab”) and when called out on it issued a pathetic non-apology saying they were “sorry for any upset that it caused.” Today I saw a post by Magnoli sharing an accessory for Rey that they were selling. Do you think Rey would want you to support a racist xenophobic company with your money? If you don’t see the problem with this you missed the entire point of Star Wars. Please help spread the word so people who care about kindness and inclusion and fighting racism can avoid inadvertently supporting this company. Oh and they haven’t taken down the video. You can still find it if you search “Magnoli Clothiers COVID” #starwarsisforeveryone #noplaceforhate #rey #scavengers #reyskywalker #starwars #theriseofskywalker #riseofskywalker #scavengersisters #scavengersiblings https://www.instagram.com/p/CFdKfHej1ps/?igshid=easdee1ktm4p

Guh, stop being the worst people. Guess what, you and you “nice guy” white friends weren’t the only ones watching Star Wars. It is Star Wars, literally everyone, POC, women homosexual, people of every religion and no religion at all and everything in between have been watching these movies since they happened. Not just white, straight male nerds. All of us, and now Star Wars is finally making room for all of its fans and you think your secret universe is being ripped away from you? Be better you wads, learn how to share and celebrate bad ass new characters that don’t look like you. . #kellymarietran #starwarsthelastjedi #starwars #starwarsisforeveryone #benice #bebetter #comeon #drawing #art #zines #zine #comics #comic #illustration #makestuff #makecomics #doodle #sketch #draw #artwork #sketchbook #dailysketch

All you have to do to be a fan is be a fan. All you have to do to be valid as a cosplayer is to put on something that makes you feel like you represent the character. You can spend hours and hours researching a handcrafting it, you can buy it, you can assemble it from what’s in your closet, etc. All are valid. The problem of gatekeeping and mansplaining is far more rare (in my experience anyway) on Instagram than it is on TikTok, but I wanted to share my PSA to the #gatekeepers and #mansplainersoftiktok . You can see the full screen version in my stories or on TikTok because the top and the bottom gets cut off a little in my feed. And ifYou’re ever targeted by someone tag me or send me a message and I’ll jump in to help ❤️ #starwarsisforeveryone #starwarsisforeveryone And Instagram’s algorithm is probably pretty mad at me right now for posting way too many things too often but that’s OK. This is important. https://www.instagram.com/p/CATNXfgjHdi/?igshid=1k0dqfupdbjyr
