I am very very white!
But I am open to any criticism, and as I said I am a huge fan of the show.
The specifics of their Cuban heritage will definitely be a challenge.
But my plan is to do what the white writers on the show do: write their best, and then expect notes from the Cubans in the writer's room. I have a few South American writer friends who will trade scripts with me so we can both give our feedback, and I will ask them to especially look at dialogue.
I also learned a lot from a book I read called Writing the Other by by Nisi Shawl and Cynthia Ward. They don't speak for everyone who has a major difference from the Dominant Paradigm in a ROAARS category (Race, Oriantation, Age, Ability, Religion, Sex) but I think they provide a good guideline for how a gay white man like myself can write a diverse range of characters like the ones in ODaaT.
