the main antagonist just did blackface to portray maddy who, mind u, was white (passing) up until the point they saw her curly hair. i’ve experienced this before and i’m sure many mixed people have too that when white people find out you have a black parent, they can’t see past that. it’s like they fixate on your having a black parent and that’s all u are. i know the slurs are coming next

ok i know i said i was sat but this is literally carrie plagiarized just with a white passing biracial girl. she’s got a prayer closet and everything. except instead of being “scary/creepy carrie” who got her period, she’s “mad mad maddy” with an afro. let’s see if this gets original further on

i’m not dogging on the book for the portrayal, i would assume it’s a very on point experience for a mixed girl in the south who’s raised to hate and hide her blackness by the influence of her white parent. i’m not from the south so i can’t speak to that. my only gripe so far is it’s almost bar for bar stephen king’s carrie. i need some more original plot points
