And one thing
Im going to touch on this manhwa probably three times: this is the first time and the the second will be at the peak of its fame because I know it will be famous and third is at the end. The manhwa I’m referencing is Song of the Wasteland. I’ve read the promo, I know the history, and are there cracks in the foundation? Yes, but the foundation is strong, it shows strong promise, the accuracy is THERE (sparsely) but I implore readers to be critical. And if you’re wondering why you should gaf it’s because when you chose to read these stories— regardless on where, you’re encoding them as a part of your world view and black, Native American, and Hispanic communities deserve better than half assed representation based on REAL events that are part of their history. So with that being said, any questions I can answer and if you don’t like what you read, then read something else.
As a Hispanic person who has indigenous ancestry and is an American. I saw the premise and it really threw me off. I don’t have much hope already because there’s already a few factually historical incorrect information within the promo. From what I read through the summary it is going to be a master slave dynamic, which I find to be quite disgu...... 2 reply

A lot of civil war media likes to paint the Union as the good guys fighting to fr...... 1 reply
You know, I don't trust ( respectfully) a Korean artist to deliver proper justice to a story which such a sensitive subject, especially pertaining to slavery and colionism. We live in a world with a lot of anti- blackness world wild.
The question i have is why this even needed to be written in the first place ? This is not their history and there...... 2 reply
OMG I never heard of this story before and RAN to the series page. I’m cracking up.
"Me? I'm your humble slave, Master." - from the synopsis
I previously had mentioned in one of these posts on mggo about an uptake in stories romanticizing slavery. But an actual real life event? We’re hitting group psychosis. There’s another manhwa takin...... 1 reply
maybe the "I'm your slave" line isn't so bad in context, but even the choice of setting, time period, and backgrounds + the synopsis is grounds for scrutiny and wariness for people who are more directly affected by that history, or just aware of the kinds of narratives surrounding this point in history.
anything's possible, so maybe this creator wi...... reply
Here the thing what I think the author did wrong (please note I'm not Native American I'm Filipino living in the Philippines but I keep watching black creator talking about their issues when I was a kid)
For starter the mc father keep talking about family honor which make no sense at all. What honor? The war which he sided with the confederate whi...... 2 reply
