And the Gervisia Leslie is starring on the CW's Bat Woman as Bat Woman and she takes really seriously her role in helping inspire younger

black lesbians listen to her. It's weird because

I feel like I get to see some of it through social media

through like tweets and IG comments and stuff, but I've also had to protect my

psyche because these people are crazy, not them, like the people that don't like the

that don't like the direction or show is going in,

you know, they can be louder sometimes.

And I have to make sure I protect my mental health more than anything.

So I'm not as active on social media as I would love to be, you know, like I would love to hear more from the people that are impacted.

Are you saying they don't... for some of the people that are impacted.

Are you saying they don't like the transition

to the show being led by a black woman?

Because you fell in love with a show that was starred by a trans woman, right?

So now you have a black woman.

I mean like, that's your problem, you were accepting of that and this is your problem?

At the end of the day, that woman originally in the comic books

was a white lesbian woman.

The first casting a bat woman was a white lesbian woman.

Then you cast a new bat woman who is a black woman that doesn't make sense to them because it does

not go in alignment with the original character so if you are a King fan, it's not even just about being binary. I don't know if it would, I know my race plays a huge part of it, but there's also just an issue that my bad woman isn't the original

bad woman.

The original bat woman is Kate Kane.
