I have the racism and Doctor Who essay written out longhand ready for type up, and it's just so fucking depressing that I'm really wondering if being part of this project is worth the toll on me. Is this cosmically worth it? Would anyone learn or change their minds?

There is that. I have to admit, my first reaction was "I want in or We Know Who will be the only voice."

But ye gods, is it depressing to rehash all this again. And then to add Rosita from the Next Doctor and Mels "I exist to become a crazy white woman."

Although the silver lining with Mels is that Teh Moff DID canonize the possibility of regeneration crossing racial lines . . . I sincerely hope that gets built on in a positive way with Doctor #12.

I'm rather assuming that 12 is now guaranteed to be Patterson Joseph.

We can hope!
