You know what, I totally love the setup in force awakens for any romantic subplot that could come out of it. The apparent options are:
1. Finn and Rey: an interracial straight couple where the man is black and the woman is white, a setup done almost always the other way around in movies
2. Finn and Poe: an interracial gay couple (with two people of color) that would be the first of its kind in a major motion picture like this
3. Finn and Rey and Poe: a potentially healthy polyamorous, interracial relationship. Unheard of ever.
4. No romantic subplot at all: A sci-fi film without a pointless romance that has no relevance to the plot??? Whaaaaaatttttt?????
I mean whichever way you swing it, it turns out pretty fantastic!
How is Poe a POC???
dude
Oscar Isaac is Latino (specifically Guatemalan/Cuban)

Consider this: Finn stealing a fry off of Rey’s plate because he heard that’s a cute thing couples do and he wants to balance out their “I’LL SAVE YOU!” emotional intensity with some cute things, only Rey freezes and Finn’s like, shit, I just stole food from someone who grew up without it, what Attack Mode did I just activate. But then she just fucking dumps all of her food on his plate all “I’LL FEED YOU, YOU’LL NEVER GO HUNGRY WITH ME” and they’re right back in the emotional intensity, and Finn doesn’t even like fries that much.
