something that grinds my gears is that I believe jocasta nu is literally the only human female jedi that we see in all of the canon (prequels + original trilogy + the clone wars + rebels)
it’s no secret that human characters, especially jedi, are constructed as the important characters in the star wars universe
and usually alien characters are introduced as ‘unique’ side characters (not that I agree with it but that’s how it’s been) and to show off the gimmick of their concept art and costume design
so its no coincidence that all the female jedi have been aliens. it’s kind of a lowkey way of dehumanization
just saying
What about Adi Gallia and Depa Billiba? (Granted, neither have any lines…)
