    “Anyone can be a hero. If you don’t get that, if you’re still upset about the casting of this marvelous trio, then it doesn’t matter how many times you have read the books. You didn’t learn anything from them.”

    She is a child, please let’s remember this. Black girls are often praised for the resilience they show when faced with violence. She is a child and should be protected from the harm she is facing rn.

    “annabeth has to be book accurate” was an excuse for thinly veiled racism, and once rr said annabeth doesnt have to look exactly like how shes described in the books, ppl ran out of excuses to hide their racism and resorted to threatening a 12 year old girl.

    “You are judging [Leah]’s appropriateness for this role solely and exclusively on how she looks. She is a Black girl playing someone who was described in the books as white…that is racism.” Read Rick’s statement at the link below:

    Black girls shouldn't have to be strong. Let them be soft, let them be carefree, let them be whoever they want to be! ✨ Black girls may be magic, but they deserve to be protected. ⚔️ We ride for Leah Jeffries!

    Staying silent and ignoring the “haters” only allows for more space for racism to fester. When Disney casted Leah, they also took up the responsibility of protecting her from such racist remarks. It shouldn’t be up to a 12 year old to deal with this by herself

    A 12 year old shouldn’t have to face this much racism from a bunch of book nerds, and she definitely shouldn’t have to do it alone. Rick Riordan has already spoken out against the ludicrous behavior against Leah, now it’s be Disney’s turn.

    leah sava jeffries is THE annabeth. she is annabeth now, always, and forever. she deserves this role and all the good that is coming her way. leah, we love you so much 🔱🦉✨

    In conclusion, RICK RIORDAN, THE AUTHOR OF THE PJO SERIES, SAID THAT YALL SHOULD SHUT TF UP! LEAH IS THE ANNABETH HE CHOSE, AND THATS FINAL. Now leave her alone.

  14. Candice Patton, Kat Graham, Nicole Beharie, Anna Diop, Cynthia Addiai-Robinson, Danai Gurira, John Boyega, Leah Jeffries & many more. The racism in sci-fi fandoms has been tiresome for decades. If I have to fight again for this 12 year old kid then so be it!

    leah was chosen because she's talented. because she can bring annabeth to life better than any other actress can. its not to fill up a "diversity quota", its to make the show the best it can be. yall haters can keep ur opinions to yourself.

    People need to understand, the people who took down leah's tiktok are RACIST. The people attacking leah for being annabeth just because she's black are RACIST. It's racism, plain and simple. There's no way around that.

    “Whatever else you take from this post, we should be able to agree that bullying and harassing a child online is inexcusably wrong.”
