Oops! A casting call for a new host of a children's program on the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, the taxpayer supported, government-owned television and radio network of Canada, accidentally told the truth, when it specified "any race except Caucasian." See for yourself:
Adrain Humphries of the National Post reports:
A casting call to hire a new CBC host that specifically said white people need not apply has been withdrawn, with the casting agent offering apologies for the mistake.
The original ad for the host of a children's show, posted on the casting agency's website under a CBC logo and on Craigslist, said: "Please only submit [an audition tape] if you match the following criteria: Male between the ages of 23-35 years; Any race except Caucasian."...

God forgive you for being born. Welcome to the club. /s
In case someone hasn’t noticed, great chunks of the popular culture has declared war on white guys.
As long as we do not fight this type of conduct will only become worse.
LMAO: They withdrew the casting call notice that said anything but whites, but you can bet the farm there won’t be any whites hired.
I guess they want to further dumb down their audience.
An INTERESTING line indeed...

One requirement was membership in one of the many listed racial/ethnic groups.
And there were dozens of groups listed! African-American, Pacific Islander, Native American, Malaysian, Pakastani Tribesman, etc. etc.
Then it hit me. Every possible group was on that list except Caucasian (no Italians, no Poles, etc.)
It was Bill Gates’s way of saying “any race except Caucasian.”
One would have to be blind not to see that in all of today’s media Blacks are tremendously over represented. I don’t know what the percentage is but I would guess it is around 35% of all people shown.
Sometimes in the daytime, I can flip through all the local channels and see nothing but Blacks.
If the character portrayed is a trusted admired professional such as Dr. Police Chief, Judge, or any other position of authority the odds are probably better than 50-50. For some odd reason the favorite seems to be Judges. I would bet that over 70% of those portrayed are by Black Females. If they are not Black they will be female.
Villains, robbers, prisoners, burglars etc. are near 100% White males. If a Black prisoner is seen he is always wrongly convicted by Whites.
I would rather have the add as it originally was, than some politically correct ad where all the white applicant’s resumes were discarded into the trash, out of view.
It was NO mistake..believe me. They just got caught.
Must be a requirement.
At least all the rejected union workers from the children’s hosts’ union will now know why they didn’t get the job.
This actually goes back MANY years. A friend of mine’s daughter was turned down for the inaugural season of Sesame Street.
This little girl who had a white dad and black mom was the most gorgeous child with huge brown eyes, creamy mocha skin and luxurious soft curly hair.
The reason she was turned down was because her “race was ambiguous and not easily identified”. Yes...40 years ago somebody actually said that to a parent at an audition.
Any race but caucasion!
Wasn’t that Obama’s 2012 election theme?
Any sex except female.
