I was worried about Zendaya when she entertained that Lifetime bullshit, but she is alright. 18 years old and ending careers. I am scared of her.

"But It's Not Historically Accurate!"

Much of this included digging into historical sources on Google Scholar to learn more about the cultural trends of 16th century Denmark. Unsurprisingly, the 16th century was a time of increasing trade volume for all of Europe. Port cities became centers for cultural mingling and for dispersed people to begin new lives. In a development more relevant to Elsinore, the Spanish Reconquista ensured that a heavily Muslim and African Spain came under the control of a powerful European dynasty: the Hapsburg family. Now united under the Holy Roman Emperor, it became possible for southern denizens of Europe to move north, and vice versa.

We decided that Ophelia's mother, now deceased, could easily have been descended from a line of Spanish-African women; she would have come to Denmark as a servant, part of another (Hapsburg) character's retinue. She then married into her husband Polonius's family line, giving Ophelia a higher social status.

It would've been much easier to make Ophelia a white girl like any other version of her character and call it a day. But we didn't, and this research process ended up giving her a complex and storied history. Here's the kicker: in the end, it didn't even take that long. The days of going to the library and checking out a stack of history books are over. We found everything we needed within about half a week.

Most people, designers and writers included, get their mental image of historical periods from film.

The Order: 1886.

even the original Arthurian source material featured a more diverse cast. Sir Morien is described as being dark-skinned: "He was all black, even as I tell ye: his head, his body, and his hands were all black, saving only his teeth. His shield and his armour were even those of a Moor, and black as a raven." Sir Palamedes and his two brothers, Safir and Segwarides, are three Knights of the Round historically described as being Saracens (Arabs).

was yall feeling them timberland produced Utada Hikaru tracks from 10 years back? wonder what shes doing now
Bought both albums. On and On should have been the lead single off This is the One. She's been on hiatus what with divorce, remarriage, and her mom committing suicide. She's coming back though. And as Nomura drew the cover for her last single, its assumed they are working on a deal for KH3.
Didnt she pass away last year?

so does the darker one allow the other the Nigga pass?

it's a mystery, i know.

Ain't right. But I'm curious. As kids, they look somewhat the same.

Anybody been with a redhead? One checkmark I will miss.

Gotdamn, gata, that's a big picture. But I realized awhile ago, when Bish edited my picture, that it's impossible to see on a phone. So, there's that. Maybe I just need to upload and quote every picture?

Why yall talkin about Asian actors for, and not even invite one of the three half Asian people who post here to say anything, lmao. That is some Fox News talking about black issues shit.
 
god damn gaf really does have a defense force for everything. when you got some lame arguing over michael jordan's clothing choices being acceptable you know the world lost.
 
Has anyone noticed how some women are upset at men(and women in some cases) for defying gender roles while at the same time a not even a few years ago wanted men to be less masculine when it came to things like emotions. Now they're calling men bitches and stuff. not like that is particularly new but I'm seeing it more often that not.
