ABOUT LINDSAY ELLIS
Lindsay Ellis is a content creator and YouTuber. Lindsay got cancelled in March 2021 after she shared her thoughts about Raya and the Last Dragon and Avatar: The Last Airbender in a tweet, which led to mixed reactions on social media.
Also watched Raya and the Last Dragon and I think we need to come up with a name for this genre that is basically Avatar: the Last Airbender reduxes. It’s like half of all YA fantasy published in the last few years anyway.
Lindsay Tweeted at that time, Although the twitt have been deleted.
Lindsay later apologised in a 40-minute YouTube video titled ‘Mask Off’ and she addressed how the word ‘cancelled’ originated, this was after tries to justify her actions by twitting.
I can see where if you squint I was implying all Asian-inspired properties are the same, especially if you were already privy to those conversations where I had not seen them. But the basic framework of TLA is becoming popular in fantasy fiction outside of Asian inspired stuff.
Lindsay tried to justify her tweet in another post after backlash from users, writing at the time.
