hiring more sensitivity readers than they ever have = fantastic amazing spectacular 👏👏👏 using other forms of oppression in lieu of slavery = intriguing 👀 not addressing the sexual assault-dependent species also present in the original books = unsurprising + worrying but we're not in full doom mode

AP folks, what are the most common (and/or most memorable) excuses you have heard for all-white AP casts? I am compiling a list for something I'm writing and while I think I've covered most of the major excuses, I'm curious what peers in the space have witnessed. (my current list in thread below)

we have more thoughts: 1. you can play with any theme so long as everyone is cool with it!! session zeroes 4 lyfe!!! 2. we hope marginalized creatives are heavily involved in this rerelease 🙏 3. there has to be a connection between a "mature" d&d setting and the rise of the alt-right.... right???
