Writing the Other Roundtable: How To Stay In Your Lane

Links for and full transcript of "Writing Characters of Color When You Are White" can be found on the Writing the Other website: http://wp.me/p7IBuN-5Y Writing the Other Master Classes: http://writingtheother.com/master-cla... ======================================== One of the most asked questions and most discussed topics among authors who want to write the Other is: Should White People Write About People of Color? There is no one answer to this question, there is no one conversation that can provide definitive guidelines. However, it is a discussion worth having in the context of the classes we teach. After all, why encourage writers to write the Other if White people shouldn't create characters who aren't White? (Leaving aside for a moment that "The Other" is not always about Race.) To this end, WtO teacher K. Tempest Bradford asked authors Jaymee Goh and Justina Ireland to participate in a roundtable discussion on the subject. Both of these authors write about literature, representation, diversity, representation, inclusion, and how problematic it can be when White authors seek out the help, approval, and emotional energy of writers of color.
