blackwashing is a word that is the opposite of whitewashing; turning a (usually white) persons skin to black. people who use the term are racists and the term doesnt make sense, because white people are viewed better by society so some people draw black characters white and wash their skin to white to appeal to a white audience. (which is wrong) black people are not the oppressors, and you dont wash white people to black. blackwashing is not real, your just mad we made ur faves black π
Person 1: stop blackwashing miku she isnt black!!
Person 2: blackwashing isnt real bitch

blackwashing is not harmful, or has a harmful history. if you go into more research about it, in fact it doesn't exist. for starters, " fixing " art that are harmless headcanons is also racist.
Person 1: Why did they make ( fictional character ) black in this picture?
Person 2: Its a head canon
Person 1: Its blackwashing though!
like any decent person: blackwashing doesn't exist. it doesn't have a harmful history behind it, its not washing anyone of color
if you think blackwashing exists, try looking up on wiki how not to be a social reject, because it doesn't exist. your either racist or uneducated.

blackwashing isn't a term and you shouldn't call someone making a white character black 'blackwashing'
my reason: black characters don't get much representation in media, like think of black characters, now think of white characters, see you have thought of a lot of white characters. though it is not okay to change a real persons skin color and call it representation.
person 1: "ugh they blackwashed my favorite character"
person 2: *explains to them that its ok to make a characters skin color darker and that blackwashing isnt a real term*
person 1: *understands and gets it*
and the conversation is over

Blackwashing is a racist term that was coined by white supremacists to imply that black actors playing 'white' characters in media was problematic. The term itself is used online as a way to deter black fans in any fandom source from seeing themselves in characters, unlike whitewashing that has a historical context of being used to 'purify' characters or people, black washing DOES NOT exist.
'' Black people blackwash everything''
'' why are you blackwashing this character''
