Star Trek: Into Whiteness
Whitewashed casting has undermined a progressive franchise.This came out on 5/9/13 on racebending.com, but I’m posting it to my blo because it’s Really Fucking Important and I can’t find a reblog link. Considering the Star Trek franchise history - the original series broke racial barriers by providing well-rounded characters played by people of color in a time when offensive stereotypes were the norm - this feels like a big step backwards. (Not that the original series didn’t also contain problematic elements, like sexism, for starters.) I’m really fucking disappointed in the people involved with casting, because it feels incredibly obvious to me that Benedict Cumberbatch was selected to play this character purely to cash in on the fandom cross-over factor. Additionally, I’m side-eyeing the fuck out of JJ Abrams & co. for telling fans that he and the rest of his crew would not be touching the Khan storyline (leading to speculation that Cumberbatch was going to be playing Gary Mitchell, or he actually would, like they said, be a brand new character in the ‘verse) pretty much up until the film came out, which allowed the whitewashing to happen unquestioned and unchecked by people who provide media criticism.
Just think about how sometimes at night, Spock prime sits down with his cup of tea or whatever and chuckles lightly to himself

really though
if breasts, butts and legs are so distracting to men, to the point they cant function
why arent they that distracting to lesbians
and at that point
why isnt the penis bulge and legs not distracting enough to gay men to warrant men being put under the same dress codes
“In response to Abercrombie & Fitch CEO Mike Jeffries not wanting “not so cool” kids or women who wear size large to wear his company’s clothes, Greg Karber has come up with a funny and creative way to readjust the Abercrombie & Fitch brand.
He’s giving their clothes to the homeless.
After scouring his local thrift shop’s “douchebag section,” Karber heads to LA’s Skid Row to dole out the clothes among the homeless population. Watch the stunt and find out how you can be involved in one man’s troll-job on a company with some pretty unflattering business practices in the video above.”
