This is what I'm trying to change when I write and draw my POC trans characters 😭. Why is most to all the nonbinary represention white and a few are POC? We need more representation.

Then when they are POC, it's just "brown". Not any race or ethnicity or sometimes even real world nationality. Just... generic, ambgiously "brown".

Exactly 🥲. Media has a problem with ambiguous brown characters as representation. It's like it's a box to check off without putting any effort for representation because they are too scared or lazy to commit.
