Here’s a reminder of the last official merch Riot released for Mel Medarda.
Not only is she excluded from events, exhibits, & anniversary releases- the rare time minimal effort was made, she was depicted as being brutalized and killed by a white man (not to mention whitewashed) #arcane

YouTooz Faces Backlash After Racist Arcane Meme Featuring Mel Medarda
YouTooz, the collectibles brand known for creating figures across major fandoms, sparked backlash after sharing a short animation featuring Arcane characters Viktor and Mel Medarda. The clip showed Viktor sitting in a car as Mel appeared on the road ahead, framed in a way that suggested violence rather than humor. Within minutes, YouTooz deleted the post, but screenshots spread fast. Fans accused the company of promoting racism and misogyny against Mel, a Black woman who already faces bias within the Arcane fandom.

I need everyone, regardless of what characters/ships you like, to recognize the point being made here ⬇️ the repeat + overt exclusion of Black characters, especially Black women (even when they are main characters), is intentional + systemic racism in action. Please follow the steps described #arcane
Hi everyone! Whenever Mel is left out of official content, most people often highlight fan creators - which is awesome!
However, the amount Mel has not been included in content since season 2 has ended is becoming intentional and systematic. Please use your voice and email Riot!
