TO MR AND MRS WHITE WASHED ENT INDUSTRY……

I love you videogames
Comic books
Cartoons
Action packed epic heroic movies.
I love how you let me escape this crazy world we live in
When I need a break.
I buy your products
Watch your movies
Mr and Mrs
Yet you constantly overlook me.
You accuse me of being racist when I complain
That I don’t see myself
In your expressive mediums.
Is it my right to say something
When over the years
I have given you
So many thousands of my hard earned currency
A fortune even.
Enough to invest in a business(?)
Yet I chose to invest in you.
You have entertained and inspired me its true
Still we don’t look like you.
And I’m beginning to think
YOU JUST DON’T CARE
About us.
I guess Michael was right when he said
THEY DON’T REALLY CARE ABOUT US.
But I wonder how much would you care
if enough of us got together
then decided
We were not going
Keep paying you
For overlooking us.

Hey….
Our kids need some fantastical role models too.
Preferably those
Who do not get killed off promptly
Or who have
Totally useless superpowers.
Get right
Enough is enough.
I love you (ALOT) but I will leave you.
