Blackwashing is an internet term made by racist 4chan and reddit users made out of retaliation towards black people where you make an existing character Black. But the intent behind it was made by black people to expressed their love for the character make them look like them especially around times where they either never had representation or representation was racist, or no thought put into. Do not confuse it with whitewashing or compare it Because whitewashing affects people in real life causing them death or generational trauma. (Open a history book)
