dark skinned black women deserve to see someone who looks like them play storm and if you brush them off and act like their valid criticisms of you playing storm are just hate and them trying to question your blackness then it’s obvious you don’t care about representation as much as you say you do 

when dark skinned black characters aren’t white washed they get light skinned actors to play them and none of these actors ever wanna talk about how they’re complicit in colourism but they’d have a lot to say if they chose a white actor to play that character

And this always happens with black female characters. Always. Especially in superhero franchises. Unless they are villains.
