Sarah Gadon and Emily Watson are true Queen of Great Bretain because they play Elizabeth Murray and Lady Mansfield in Dido Belle and Princess Elizabeth Windson and Queen Mother a Royal Night Out and even Helena Bohan Carter play Queen Mother in King's Speech and Margaret in The Crown and because She play All-Maudra Mayrin, the mother of Seladon and grandmother of Kira from Dark Crystal.

We could have more movies like Belle and Chevalier if it weren’t for the racism in the film industry and the idiocy of ppl who scream “It’s not historically accurate!” as if they know anything about history.

Dido Elizabeth Belle and her cousin Elizabeth Murray (1776)
Tumblr media
Dido Belle (1761-1806). The illegitimate daughter of a british aristocrat Sir John Lindsay and an enslaved african woman Maria Belle. Her position was ambiguous in her household. I would like to think that she received some love hence this portrait in almost equal position to her cousin. We know she was educated and literate. But it was clear that her everyday life might have been paved with everyday tiny humiliation due to the racist system of her time which will keep remind her that because of her skin tone and her bastard position she was still not totally one of them.

In french version, Jamie Fraser from Outlander and John Davinier, the husband of Dido Belle Lindsay, were both dubbed by Nicolas Matthys and because Jamie reveals at the audience that Seladon(Gugu Mbatha-Raw) and Tavra(Caitriona Balfe) are Kira's aunt from Dark Crystal

Black Historical Figures I think are cool af!
Happy Black History Month! Below the cut you’ll find a list of 10 black historical figures I think are super cool (and often overlooked in favour of their white/non-black counterparts) all of the figures are inspirational to me in some way and I think anyone can learn from their examples, regardless of race.
Tumblr media
Dido Elizabeth Belle aka Dido Belle Lindsay - staying the course of your beliefs, knowing you deserve better. Knowing what’s right is more than possible.
Joseph Bologne, Chevalier de Saint-George(s) - don’t let anyone take your talents and passions from you. Those who treat you wrong don’t deserve you.
Phillis Weatly/Phyllis Weatly - no matter what you’ve been subjected to, don’t let anyone take your voice from you.
James Armistead Lafayette - fight (spy) for what you believe in. You may turn out to be the most powerful piece in the fight.
Harriet Tubman - no matter the evils of the world, there are good people out there, don’t forget your strengths and allies.
Freda Josephine Baker (née McDonald) best known simply as Josephine Baker - dance and keep dancing, no matter how bad things are. You only live once.
Bessie Coleman - pursue your dreams no matter who tells you that you can’t. You may match them in renown yet.
Gladys Bentley - wear what you want, speak how you want, and love whomever you choose.
Martha P. Johnson - be here, be queer, and speak truth to power.
Maya Angelou born Marguerite Annie Johnson - write, write, write, oh… and don’t fear life.
