Anyone but The Black Girl, A Story of Shipping in Fandom

Table of Contents

I’m not racist!!1!

Inexplicable reasons of dislike, not explained

Why that white girl who showed up for 2 minutes is more worthy of romantic affection than her

She’s strong; she’s independent; she don’t need no man

You can’t trust her, you just can’t

Stolen looks? Passionate kissing? Steamy sex scene? Sorry she doesn’t have chemistry with him

Who cares if it’s canon?

Why that minor character white guy is more worthy of romantic affection than her

He’s already in a relationship, so you can’t ship Black Girl with him, sorry

If she doesn’t have a weapon, if she can’t fight, she should just be written out, because!

There are 200 white dudes on this show, we don’t need Black Girl!

What’s a queer black woman?

That was the last sunrise I ever saw. Perhaps the kindest thing the dark gift has given me. // It was the last time I saw my brother. It was the last time I saw the sun. It was the only time I ever felt free.

TEXAS HOLD 'EM Official Visualizer

“I remember an incident from my own childhood, when a very close friend of mine and I, we were walking down the street. We were discussing whether God existed. And she said he did not. And I said he did. But then she said she had proof. She said, ‘I had been praying for two years for blue eyes, and he never gave me any.’ So, I just remember turning around and looking at her. She was very, very Black. And she was very, very, very, very beautiful. How painful. Can you imagine that kind of pain? About that, about color? So, I wanted to say you know, this kind of racism hurts. This is not lynchings, and murders, and drownings. This is interior pain. So deep. For an 11 year-old girl to believe that if she only had some characteristic of the white world, she would be okay. [Black girls] surrendered completely to the master narrative. I mean the whole notion of what is ugliness, what is worthlessness. She got it from her family, she got it from school, she got it from the movies — she got it everywhere; it’s white male life. The master narrative is whatever ideological script that is being imposed by the people in authority on everybody else. The master fiction, history, it has a certain point of view. So, when these little girls see that the most prized gift that they can get at Christmastime is this little white doll, that’s the master narrative speaking: “This is beautiful. This is lovely, and you’re not it.”

additional info:

-> “why wasn’t this book listed?” probably because it wasn’t black sapphic-centric, the author isn’t a black sapphic themself, or i just simply haven’t heard of it! so feel free to add on if it meets those two criteria

many of these books require trigger warnings, especially some of the older ones that are more likely to feature racial struggles of the time. please do your due diligence and search for tws if you want to read them!

please feel free to add onto this list in the rbs or comments! happy black history month
