I don't think it matters much to the kids that now have a shot at life. What you are describing is a symptom of the exploitation of the global south. It doesn't look like the woman exploits them, other than awarness to raise money to save more.

So you would have preferred her to refrain from helping the boy because of their differences in skin color? Isn't that... wildly racist? Wanting the child to suffer more just because of race? Because it might resemble some cinematic/literary trope?

I suppose this is a decent reminder to limit my social media consumption. This is gross.

Okay but like if youre gonna have a charity and help people, how else do you expect them to help? Hire black people to send to africa to help africans? That seems pretty fucking racist to me.

The woman in the top picture giving water to the starving kid actually happened though, she found the abandoned kid in Africa who was called a witch by his village and was on the verge of death so she adopted him from what I remember. You posting about fictional white saviorsin media has nothing to do with her being a human being and saving g that kid's life.

So… she’s actually in a place where people need help, doing the work herself, but you’re fixated on skin color? Because she’s white, she’s only allowed to help other white people without being mocked?

Attitudes like that are part of the problem.

Edit: here’s her website: Land of Hope

You left out the part where it's a true story.
Not a trope. If only there was google.

TIL real life is cinema
