Ingram received backlash for playing Reva

Moses Ingram plays a force-sensitive and serves the Galactic Empire as a member of the Inquisitorius. Riva’s mission is crystal clear, to find and capture the Jedi Master Obi-Wan. So far, Ingram has appeared in only two episodes and the actor has received a ton of vitriol from toxic fans online. Ingram herself posted a few screenshots from her Instagram account of some of the racist backlash from starwars fans.

After Ingram took the issue to her Instagram stories where she received hundreds of anti-Black, misogynist messages for portraying a fictional villain who does evil things. The official star wars account responded to the racist harassment by saying “There are more than 20 million sentient species in the Star Wars galaxy, don’t choose to be a racist.” The caption of the post said, “We are proud to welcome Moses Ingram to the Star Wars family and excited for Reva’s story to unfold. If anyone intends to make her feel in any way unwelcome, we have only one thing to say: we resist.”

In the past, Lucasfilm actually got in front of the anticipated racism to her casting following similar harassment towards John Boyega and Kelly Marie Tran. During her live session, Ingram said, “I’m not built like that, so I really just wanted to come on and say thank you to the people who show up for me in the comments and the places that I’m now going to put myself. And to the rest of y’all: y’all weird.”
