Hollywood Indirect Racism

Clodfobble, this is besides the point. This is an Asian cultured film (the setting is the East), so what if illustration didn't make them all chinky-eyed and buck teeth, prominent "Asian" features. Who says they aren't Asian, are you the judge of that?

The racism debate with casting is on the news, which somewhat comforts me that some people can be educated about it..and it's sad that those with ties in Hollywood are trying to dodge the question (as I jjust saw someone skirt the subject when it came up on a TV show), as they have no good answer.
