i get your point, but why are you assuming that the people who want to self insert are white? all that means is they don't feel they look like her, they could literally still be black but have an entirely different look and aesthetic so maybe it throws them off. or maybe they're asian, or hispanic, or literally anything but white. i think thats why the other commenter mentioned that your point about race was unnecessary. its not unnecessary to talk about race in general in regards to the story, it IS good for representation to have a default black woman as a character, so i don't actually care in terms of "needing" to self insert even if i prefer it. but assuming the people wanting to self insert are white or white passing isn't really fair either
