Unpacking The Black Characters In Wednesday On Netflix

As a Black woman and a fan of supernatural stories, I was excited to see Black

As a Black woman and a fan of supernatural stories, I was excited to see Black representation in Wednesday, but I was also wary of the way these Black characters would be perceived.

The Black characters in Wednesday don't feel like there was any intention behind their Blackness.... they feel like they weren't written to be Black, just to check a diversity box so Burton wouldn't have to deal with questions about the show's lack of it.
