Moses Ingram, who plays the inquisitor Reva Sevander, aka the third sister in Obi-wan Kenobi, just posted on her Instagram story about the racist, hateful messages she’s been getting in her DMs.
Mind you, we’re only two episodes in.
She doesn’t deserve this. Especially not from the fandom that is supposedly so “welcoming” and “loving.”
But this is the pattern we always see. Over and over again.
They did this with Ahmed Best, John Boyega and Kelly Marie Tran. They keep doing this.
Welcoming is a myth. I’m sick of it. I’m glad she’s exposing this, but Star Wars needs to do better calling this out. This shouldn’t be her responsibility.
They need to protect their actors of color. But it’s sad that I don’t expect them to.

Moses Ingram | Instagram Stories
(Part 1)
Smh....🤦 The racism in this Star Wars fandom is unreal... smh 😔
It's so SAD that black actors like John Boyega and Moses Ingram have to go through hate like this. Even Asian actress Kelly Marie Tran was given a lot of hate after "The Last Jedi". When is enough enough? 🥴

The official Star Wars Instagram page posted this video of Ewan today and I am so glad that he is in her corner.
I watched her Instagram story this morning after seeing a few posts about it and the messages she shared and her reaction to them just churned my stomach.
There is no reason for this behavior. It's bad enough when people comment it on things, but to directly send it to her DMs is monstrous.
It was horrible when it happened to John Boyega. It was horrible when it happened to Kelly Marie Tran. It was horrible when something similar happened to Ahmed Best way back when the Prequels came out.
The treatment of these talented actors based on their race and because you don't like the FICTIONAL character they are playing needs to stop.

[ad_1] Obi-Wan Kenobi has gotten pretty good reviews so far, but racist messages fans sent to Moses Ingram, who plays one of the bad guys in the Disney+ show, have reignited conversations about bigotry within the Star Wars universe.On her Instagram account today, Ingram shared several racist messages she received on social media calling her a “diversity hire,” and threatening her. She explained that she had received “hundreds” of racist messages since Obi-Wan Kenobi began airing on May 27.“I think the thing that bothers me is this feeling that I’ve had inside of myself, which no one has told me, but that I’ve just got to shut up and take it. I’ve just got to grin and bear it. I’m not built like that, so I really just wanted to come on, I think, and say, ‘Thank you’ to the people who show up for me in the comments and the places I’m not gonna put myself,” Ingram wrote.In Obi-Wan Kenobi, Ingram plays Reva Sevander, a powerful member of the Inquisitors, a shadowy organization that hunts Jedis. Ingram earned an Emmy nomination for her role in The Queen’s Gambit, and also played an important supporting part in Joel Coen’s acclaimed The Tragedy of Macbeth.Last week, Ingram spoke about how she wanted to play a character who could be an inspiration for young people of color: “It's important that when we turn on the TV, we see the world that we live in reflected back to us in what we're seeing,” she said. “Representation is so important, and I feel so blessed that I get to be the vehicle that this character comes forth through.”Shortly after Ingram shared the hateful messages she had been receiving, the official Star Wars Twitter account issued a pair of statements. “We are proud to welcome Moses Ingram to the Star Wars family and excited for Reva’s story to unfold. If anyone intends to make her feel in any way unwelcome, we have only one thing to say: we resist.”There is a real history of Star Wars fans harassing actors who are women and/or people of color. In a September 2020 GQ UK cover story, John Boyega, who played stormtrooper-turned-Resistance-leader Finn in the 2010s trilogy, was critical of how his character was emphasized in marketing while his role became increasingly diminished. (The Chinese poster for Star Wars: The Force Awakens infamously shrunk Boyega’s character considerably, from being the third most visible figure to being smaller than the droid BB-8.)“Like, you guys knew what to do with Daisy Ridley, you knew what to do with Adam Driver,” he says. “You knew what to do with these other people, but when it came to Kelly Marie Tran, when it came to John Boyega, you know fuck all,” Boyega said. “So what do you want me to say? What they want you to say is, ‘I enjoyed being a part of it. It was a great experience...’ Nah, nah, nah. I’ll take that deal when it’s a great experience.” [ad_2] Source link

John Boyega in Japan freaking out over anime figurines and excitedly shouting at people dressed in Mario Kart costumes in the road sustains me in a way nothing else will
