Into The Void Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 All TV is diverse now and has been for like the last 20 yrs. We have trans, non binary etc main characters too. Like sure the past was different but we can't undo it we can only learn and move forward which is exactly what tv has done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is a reflection of the United states and the Planet Props to her for visibility. As a latino when i was younger i was always baffled at the lack of black-latino-east asians-middle easterns-indians in main roles specially in Scifi and fantasy movies. Such a rarity to see a prominent non-white actor. It was like...........White people-blondies blue eyes are better. Only they can be these tv-film megastars and main acts. I should look more white to be powerful-hotter like those amazing stars I think in some kind of way it helped to create a feeling of self-hate here in latinoamerica. A feeling of Inferiority. Still permeating today Hollywood has been a vessel for White Supremacy all over the planet. Nothing against the beautiful white community (love white culture) but this is tea Now things are more diverse and we all can relate to different characters Things have improved so much with the years. There are stars for all the ethnicities. White,Black,Latino,East-SouthEast Asian,Indian...... We have a chance in hollywood too. Is not as impossible as before. I stg this US conception that Latinos are a race/ethnicity feels so absurd to me lol. Its just a cultural term. Im brazilian btw.

It’s true but what exactly are they able to do about it now?

FreeXone Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 As a black person I find this retroactive outrage trivial. Many shows I grew up with did not have black cast. But we loved them regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 (edited) Yawn.. low hanging fruit take. And I’m not white before y’all get at me i don’t understand why some people think that “woke” automatically means “funny”, it’s cringe for sure.

Where are the latinos? east asians? middle eastern? gays? Thats problematic. Not diverse enough quinta There's a Latina teachers aide and one of the main cast members is in a gay interracial relationship. If you did your homework you'd know Philadelphia is predominantly a Black/White city... it's no New York City. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cryptique Posted April 9, 2023 Share Posted April 9, 2023 casting black people for the sake of "diversity" is so FORCED like that HERMIONE fiasco in Harry Potter and the Cursed Child..
