http://www.breitbart.com/big-hollywood/2017/07/17/star-wars-actor-john-boyega-bemoans-lack-of-diversity-on-screen-there-are-no-black-people-on-game-of-thrones/
There are no black people on Game of Thrones. You don’t see one black person in Lord of the Rings,” Boyega told GQ, though Game of Thrones features several characters of color — several of them slaves turned soldiers called the Unsullied — two of which, Missandei (Nathalie Emmanuel) and Grey Worm (Jacob Anderson) are season regulars and fan favorites. “I ain’t paying money to always see one type of person on-screen,” Boyega added. “Because you see different people from different backgrounds, different cultures, every day. Even if you’re a racist, you have to live with that. We can ruffle up some feathers.” Well, he's wrong there is diversity in the cast and the article left out the many people in Dorne. --- #MAGA Got a Chris Paul mindstate, I'm never out of bounds ...

Yes And I think LotR did, but ASoIaF definitely has black people, they're just not common or in major roles because they're in regions other than Westeros. --- i7 7700k | GTX 1080 | 16GB DDR4 | Asus Z270E | Dell S2716DG http://steamcommunity.com/id/StoneWallace17 ...

“I ain’t paying money to always see one type of person on-screen,"
So he doesn't watch any media from countries that aren't so diverse(like..most countries?) He doesn't watch any old movies that frequently were mostly or all white? He's not going to watch Black Panther because it's almost all black? He doesn't watch anything that's a period piece or historical piece about a time and location that's one race? What a dumb thing to say to say you won't watch something because it doesn't have enough different colors of people in it. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

dude must've watched one episode or something. Prince Doran's guard, Davos' pirate friend, and that rich guy who tried to scam Dany in season two are all black. They're named characters too, they just come from Essos which has foreign names that are too difficult to spell.
