Hello All.
I have written a supernatural angel/demon story, set in modern day Colorado. (The Mesa Verde area to be specific)
My main character has spent his life in a wheelchair; his best friend is Native American.
I have been looking for sensitivity readers in these two areas because I want to be certain I'm not falling into any trope/stereotype traps or being offensive with either character in any way. I don't 'think' I am, but as I am not either of those things, I'm not certain. I have researched such tropes and usual problems that crop up when writing them, and think I've avoided as many as I can.
I've been looking for readers to critique those two aspects of the book. While I've found sensitivity readers for gender related issues, and some racial issues (black, Asian, and Hispanic) and issues like autism, depression, and similar mental issues and neurodivergent areas, I haven't come up with anything for either of the two areas I am concerned with.
Does anyone have resources like these, or know readers who would be interested in critiquing these two aspects of the story?
