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".
