"When he saw any strength, or self respect in a Black person, he just went crazy. I mean- it just- he couldn’t stand it. It’s like, “when you see me you gotta squat!”. So if you don’t become ingratiating, he’d just like go crazy"

Dwayne McDuffie was right is all I have to say.
That’s exactly the fucking logic for putting POC in anything
“POC can’t exist here! NOT REALISTIC”
But every single literary trope can? Oh, OK.
This is fuckin’ brilliant.

This idea that there are no Indian actors who are talented, who have the “spark”, who could have made the character “sympathetic and relatable”, or hell have “cheekbones” is racist.
What people, and this includes PoC, don’t realize is, that this same thought process is why many actors of color don’t get roles. Even character of color roles.
