he’s so handsome ♡

the thing about the talia writer is so depressing because like finally an own voices writer, and like positive arab representation is basically nonexistent, and i get not wanting to financially support someone who ships incest but right now i feel like an arab writer writing an arab character is more important, like if this doesnt succeed dc might not hire another arab writer ever like this news is more upsetting to me and other arab fans than any other non arab, but we're a minority group that is only every characterised as terrorists or with other racial stereotypes, so to me personally the representation right now is more important than what the writer ships, as long as she doesn't let it influence her writing, and shes not writing jason or tim, finally having an arab writer is a win even if it is one step forward two steps back

Respect Robin- DO NOT DONATE

Respect Robin Petition 

*Please DO NOT donate to petition. Couldn’t find a popular petition website to put it on that didn’t have the donating option.

What is this petition about? 

If you want the full description I recommend you click on the link and read through the petition (I spent a LONG time writing it so I would appreciate a quick read).  

But in summary, there is two parts to this petition:

First is to vocalize our frustration with Damian’s regression as well as the ignorance of his previous development. It also addresses the fact that most fans don’t feel right that Damian, one of the most visibly diverse Robins, is going down this path. 

 Second is to call out DC comics and their editors for creating a comic (Teen Titans) that feeds into many negative racial stereotypes about Arabians, Latinx, Black people and Northeast Asians (particularly Japanese people). 

Do you think this petition will even work? 

I do not know. If I am being honest, I created this petition because I didn’t want to regret not doing anything about this (besides the fact I am feeling very desperate). 

I can only say that the success of this petition is dependent on how much people share it and spread the word about it. 

How can I help?

Re-blog, Re-blog, Re-blog. If you reblog or liking this make sure your ALSO signing it. Remember signatures are important (Probably more important)  as well as spreading the word.  

Spread the word. If you have any group chats with anyone in the comic fandom on Tumblr share it with them, urge them to sign it. The same with any other comic fandom-related group chat on any other platform (Such as Twitter, Facebook, Discord etc.)

Click on the petition and write your reasoning’s as to why you agree with the petition especially if you identify racially to any of the members of Teen Titans. Express your frustration as to how it represents you wrongly. Also express your frustrations as to why you think making Damian a villain/ antihero doesn’t sit right with you.  

If you have any suggestions as to how I should spread the word please comment below.
