If more Afrodescendants in this country are going to get into board game design, I hope that they can take a page from the growing popularity of German-style games.
The Germans who designed Settlers of Catan and other construction-oriented, non-excluding board games took their cue from living in the shadow of Hitler and his movement’s war machine. These newer Germans sought to move in a less war-driven, less-capitalistic, less-predatory game structure.
That is a more exemplary model to follow. I don’t know if there are German-style RPG board games, though.
