But few have undertaken
the effort the way twenty-one-year-old Kiera Please has. Ablack cosplaying
celebrity on Instagram, she's not just taking on black characters, but a diverse array from the world of pop culture, be they white, Pacific Islander, Asian, or, uh, blue.
Not only is her cause a good one, but her work is some of the best you've ever seen (especially considering she's doing one of these EVERY DAY).
Take a look. You might just learn a little bit about books, movies, or shows you never knew existed.
