Dumb Test. I got docked a lot for thinking that a minority can play a role with an accent or "subservient" to a white person.

It all depends on the role given. They could be a research partner or a waitress. I don't think their skin color should affect this. It's only an issue if many non-white people are never given leading roles when they are skilled enough, solely due to their ethnicity.

I also got docked for the food jokes. I comment on even my own food, so I'll likely do it for dog meat as well. No need to be completely rude, but it's fine to talk and joke about it. (Garlic was a weird comparison to dog meat...) If you look down on other nations' cuisine by stereotyping, then that's bad.

I think it's Ok if a non-white person has an accent. Everyone has an accent. If it's overly fake/bad, then yeah, it's not great. There's a ton of American actors who mimic UK accents and vice-versa, sometimes you need to change your voice to fit the role. Again, I think it's more of a case where there can be non-white actors with an American or non-exaggerated accent.

Oh yeah, and the solid grasp of english compliment. If english isn't their first language, I think that's a good compliment to make for anyone. If you assume that english isn't their first language based on their ethnicity and make that compliment, then yeah, that's bad.

Never forget, my dear boy, that Manuel in Faulty Towers is problematic.

I love how post 38 by @SaltyWet hasn't been taken down yet. Imagine if he said any other group but white people. Just imagine. Not only that but everyone's reaction here

Tag for later
