Bag om Black Girl Magic - Cosplay Edition - A Black Children's Coloring Book
Salute to Black Women and Back Girls who just want to have fun in life, and don't let adversity define their existence.
As a Black Man, I have a Duty and Obligation to Support and Defend the Black Woman, in any and every situation she feels threatened.
Black Female Cosplayers face daily onslaughts online and real world attacks by racist trolls. Therefore I've published this Black Girl Magic - Cosplay Edition - She Gon Be Black Today, as a Black Children's Coloring Book to Salute Black Women's strength and integrity against racism worldwide.
And I give much respect to Afrococoapuffs / @Afrococoapuffs defining moment: Hinata isn't Black but She isn't real. She Gon Be Black Today !!!
This Black Girl Magic - Cosplay Edition, depicts 12 Black Female Cosplayers that I've met on Social Media since 2016, that includes quotes from their experiences with online hate and racism.

I've been cosplaying for about 3 years now. I'm currently on hiatus due to health issues.
I've received many comments saying I was too dark to cosplay Yuna.
I get told I won't look good in pics because my skin is dark so it's hard for me to get photographers.

Sorry not sorry to all of you who think my skin color make these cosplays inaccurate. Idk what to tell ya, I just have a tough time learning my lesson.
I am Akakioga and I'm unapologetic as fuck in my skin color. Fite me please, I dare you...

I'm Tranquil Ashes. I've been told by photographers that I don't fit their esthetic.
Been turned into gorilla/food memes and told I'm too fat to Cosplay ANY character.
Here to show reverence to Black and Plus- Size cosplayers especially those with darker skin.

It feels like I picked the worst hobby to get into some days.
But for every hateful and racist comment there are ten more who are encouraging and supportive.
I will keep doing what I love and cosplaying as who I love too

At one point I didn't want to cosplay cause I was worried about the comments from ppl about me being black and cosplaying white characters.
Then I realized I shouldn't let what they think effect me and do it anyway and here I am cosplaying now #CosplayAnyway
