I think this is going to lead to some bad unforeseen consequences. With Zoe, Kristen Bell, Allison Brie, Jenny Slate, etc. all refusing to play POC characters, this can lead to one of two things happening: Either network execs are going to want these actors/actresses because they're wildly popular, thereby leading to roles being whitewashed or if a writer/producer is steadfast & wants an African American starring in the role, the networks won't pick up their show as the cast has no star power.
It's an awful catch-22. I'm not saying continue to let white people have these roles, but I feel as if by trying to be more inclusive, you're potentially take a step backward instead of forward.
I love this band so much
It Still Moves was my introduction that there was more to music than classic rock & 90s grunge. I remember being fully blown away when I heard it & haven't looked back since.
