THIS!! Thank you!!

Watching the documentary, it's so much clearer why it was so important to Rick that the main cast be diverse. I think too many of us were caught up with the fact that the books we loved as kids were getting a faithful adaptation that we forgot that this is a kid's show. So many children are going to grow up with this show. This will be for them what Harry Potter was for us. Even though I loved the Harry Potter movies and wouldn't change anything about them, I'd be lying if I said that as a person of colour I didn't feel a little excluded. I remember being so excited when the goblet of fire came out and introduced us to characters like Padma and Parvati Patil. For the first time ever I felt like someone of my ethnicity could also belong at Hogwarts. I know that Disney's attempt at race swapping in the name of representation definitely has its issues but in this particular case I genuinely think that having a diverse cast was incredibly important and in touch with Rick's initial intentions behind writing the books. Representation in Children's media, especially in a show such as PJO is incredibly important. I know it's different from the books but imagine in this day and age watching a show about a camp where everyone is white. Even if it's not intentional, it's exclusionary. And besides, the actors are all incredibly talented and capture the essence of their characters so well. Isn't that what really matters anyway? So if there's anyone still complaining that the show isn't faithful to the books, I would urge you to dig a bit deeper. Cause even though the show may look different from how you imagined, its heart and essence is the same as the books.

I swear to god I’m on my last fucking straw-

On one of the reviews for the Percy Jackson show someone said “Being blonde was like 90% of Annabeth’s personality!” (In response to her being played by a black actress) and I just-

There is SO much more to Annabeth than just being blonde and white. Her dynamic is BARELY about the ‘Dumb blonde’ stereotype.

Her entire character dynamic is that she feels like she constantly has to prove herself because A)Her dad pretty much kicked her out of the house at age 7 because she was a demigod(Which was HIS fault as he’s the one who fell in love with a god) and B)Her mom is goddess, the goddess of wisdom at that. How is Annabeth supposed to live up to those standards? She constantly feels useless because all of her friends have these super cool powers and all she has is the fact that she’s smart. And she also feels like a failure because she’s the daughter of one of the smartest beings to ever exist and she STILL fails sometimes. She failed to save Luke. She spent 8 months searching for Percy and drove herself crazy because she couldn’t figure out where he was or what happened to him. She was supposed to be smart, why couldn’t she figure it out? She was one of the smartest people in camp. And she felt like she was failing everyone when she couldn’t figure things out.

again, there is SO MUCH MORE to Annabeth than just being blonde. If you ‘can’t relate to her anymore’ then you never related to her in the first place apart from the fact that you were blonde and white.

I can relate to Annabeth perfectly(and I’m not blonde), and I get her struggles. I understand what it’s like to be considered ‘gifted’ at such a young age and then suddenly start struggling at 12. I understand what it’s like to feel like you’re constantly failing everyone, like you have to earn everyone’s love. I understand what it’s like to doubt yourself every single day.

Being blonde has pretty much nothing to do with Annabeth’s character.
