America Chavez - Blog Posts
Let's have a conversation.
Just because an ethnic group includes white people, it doesn't mean presenting said ethnic group as white is beyond critique. Presenting a diverse ethnic group as all-white or pale, or any specific way to cater to white supremacy (racism, colorism) is still whitewashing.
Homogenizing Roma as white caters to white supremacy.
Homogenizing black women as light-skinned caters to white supremacy.
Homogenizing Latines as white or light-skinned caters to white supremacy.
Lightening the skin tone or erasing the racial identity of canonically dark-skinned, brown, and/or black characters caters to white supremacy.
Homogenizing entire races and ethnic groups to look one way in the media created THIS:
Me: Damn, I can’t make any digital art rn
The drawings I’ve made during my random disappearance:
have you all noticed I have a favorite character? (please ignore the weird abs, these are old)
*after the Family has been separated for a few years*
Friday : So what have you been up to recently?
Pepper : Leading a revolution with Peter.
Harley : Good for you two! Me, I've joined the mob.
America : *nods* Oh, how cool! That's awesome!
Harley : I know! Anyway, have you heard from the others? Rhodey?
Christine : Happily living as a hermit in the woods. Tony?
Stephen : Wrongfully locked up in an asylum, which reminds me, we need to break him out later. Jarvis?
Peter : Cult leader.
Friday : Yeah, that sounds about right.

They wanted to give America a proper nationality instead of her being generically Latina. America is now Puerto Rican.
Oh cool! This is good to know.
Yeah this was a plot whole that I was wandering about myself. But this retcon is still kinda sad to me because we lost the lesbians planet and the beautiful lesbian goddesses and everything.
But I guess there are some good parts as well. I can understand that.
Please please someone help me figure this out.
I don't read a lot of marvel comics so I don't know what's happening there.
Why there are 2 different versions of America Chavez??
There is the 2017 run "America" where she has a grandmother and she's an alien she goes to her planet.
She has this whole experience.
But then in modern comics she's a child that was done experiments on??
WHY
Worst retcon I've ever seen.
Why did this happen? What happened?
Don't get me wrong I love her sister but what happened to the planet of lesbians? Why human?
Did the whole marvel universe been retconed in an event I'm not familiar with? Please someone help out here I'm lost.
I'm just trying to understand.
Anyone else slowly dying inside after watching Multiverse Of Madness 😭
MoM spoilers
it is said that the book of vishanti gives someone exactly what they need to defeat their enemy. doctor strange and america were looking for something material and concrete, something to give them an answer, a weapon, guidelines, something more than just the two of them.
i didn’t notice until my second watch, but when wanda destroyed the book, there was one page that stuck out. it shriveled up and floated away, as if saying “hey look at me!”
what was on that page? a star
what’s america’s symbol? a star
she was all they needed all along. and she was ultimately what saved them and the world and the multiverse.
Stephen: We call that a traumatic event.
Stephen, turning to Peter: Not a “bruh moment.”
Stephen, turning to America: Not a “major L.”
Stephen, turning to Tony: And definitely not an "OOF, lmao".
am i living or just waiting for the mom!wanda x adopted daughter!america fics?
Finished my entry for the Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness art contest. Got my inspiration from the John Carpenter movie poster of In the Mouth of Madness.
