#the fact that they're both black is incredibly disappointing

For anyone who is not on Twitter, multiple members of the iwtv Fandom (inkyblotposts, amarawombat and two others) went to the real actual slave plantation they filmed iwtv 1994 at while touring nola and took pictures with a funko pop of movie!Louis (a slave owner), calling it their top priority, rather than yknow, honoring the enslaved black people who lived, were tortured, and died there. They also toured a "haunted plantation" and took loustat ship pictures in st Augustine's, the oldest black catholic church in America (which is currently decommissioned bc the catholic church doesn't want to fix it up but different story) and made the entire history of that church about loustat/the show instead of the over 200 years of history and the enslaved people who built it. So just keep that in mind when interacting with people in this Fandom.

Here is one of the people who went on the trip and took the funko pop pictures

Here are the mentioned apologies

#the fact that they're both black is incredibly disappointing #even if they are from another country you should know better concerning the issues #of black people within the diaspora #especially since your country is responsible for a good majority of it
