Lovecraft was certainly racist, xenophobic and mentally ill nobody is celebrating that. But that doesn't mean people of color and marginalized groups can't participate in the field of weird fiction and art. Many black artists have reclaimed, reinterpreted and reimagined Lovecraft's work. The award winning weird fiction author Victor Lavalle and HBO's Emmy Award winning Lovecraft Country are two great examples of this off the top of my head. Events like the Necronomicon help support and spotlight black and queer artists and well as critique Lovecraft's problematic views.
