cosplaying things like moana is one thing - cosplay shouldn't be limited to what ur race is. but literally wearing a brown skin costume? no

Disney, I love you and I love what i'm seeing of Moana so far but you screwed up with that Maui Costume.

1. Its deadass brown skin...as a costume??

2. some islander tattoos are very sacred, this costume is literally mocking our traditions.
I wanted Moana to be real. I wanted to feel relevant in the eyes of the general public, but no. I'm only a costume to them, and that's sad
