Oh, for fuck's sake. Thanks, Pundit, for pointing this out.
The overall setup here is harmless enough - a bunch of kids doing a joint Kickstarter for some niche games that, by themselves, would probably not be marketable. Some of them seem quite talented, and they all probably mean well, and so on - but if they seriously opt for a race-based marketing angle, that's as stupid as it can be. A "RPGLATAM" brand, why not? - But not this way.
The Spanish-speaking and Portuguese-speaking RPG communities do perfectly well, and we have a gaming tradition that is as old as any other non-D&D gaming tradition. Certainly, we don't need some micropublishers from England to pick up "our cause". We need them to sit down, read a few books about the countries and the cultures they're talking about, and then shut the fuck up for the rest of the conversation.
Jesus. I'm not Latino, I'm Spanish - but in this context, this doesn't matter. Challenge, add, and debate all you want - but this borders on wrongfully appropriation. Two English guys want to fix colonialism? - Cool. Go and fix Sudan. Or, Ireland. Seems you have some work left to do, there, before you should think about shit that stinks other people's backyards.
Like, just imagine if a Latin-American publishing house picked ten random, unknown writers and went - "we're representing British gaming culture now, oi".
I repeat, I understand that this is probably not much, and that they probably genuinely mean well, but - boy, oh, boy. They had all this material and THIS was what they came up with as a marketing campaign?!

Like, guys, I'm still weighing my words here because I'm truly offended by this. This is bigotry in live motion, at the expense of a few kids that probably did some good work on their dream projects. And then the publishers came along and went all, yeaaaah, we need to spice this up...
