well there are ppl saying a character shouldn't be white when she was described as having olive skin

(Anonymous) 2012-05-06 05:14 pm (UTC)(link)
i thought it was because the casting call was only open to white people.

apparently because americans are now using it to mislabel poc who quite obviously have other identities they'd rather be labelled as.

americans are mcfucked

so according to this (whatever it is) olive is a catch all for any skin color that's not white or black?

(Anonymous) 2012-05-06 05:06 pm (UTC)(link)
n

any skin tone with green rather than blue or pink undertones

(Anonymous) 2012-05-06 05:07 pm (UTC)(link)
what about PC-13?

(Anonymous) 2012-05-06 05:09 pm (UTC)(link)

(Anonymous) 2012-05-06 05:08 pm (UTC)(link)
olive skin is white

(Anonymous) 2012-05-06 05:06 pm (UTC)(link)
PC-17 and PC-19 is the same color

(Anonymous) 2012-05-06 05:06 pm (UTC)(link)
swatches are too small. the undertones really need several square inches to be detectable.

i'm probably pc-42 myself tho
