Jenny Slate, Kristen Bell and now Mike Henry have quit their jobs voicing black characters. But nobody will demand that James Earl Jones's voiceover performance of Darth Vader be redubbed by a white actor.

So can we stop casting Blacks in historical movies, series and Shakespeare where they are totally anachronistic.

as far as apu

why didn’t any indians ever make their own characters and promote them in their own books and shows?

they don’t do anything productive on their own because tgey’d rather sit back and complain about others actually doing something while they do nothing except b1tch and moan

Seth McFarland needs to give up his role as Brian. Only a DOG should play a DOG character.

So for twenty years he had no problem voicing a black character? So now that he has made his money he suddenly becomes woke? He should be forced to give up any money that he has made voicing the character. He has been stealing for 20 years.

A few weeks ago I saw for the second or third time, “Troy”.

To my surprise neither Achilles or Hector were portrayed by Black Actors. Have they gone crazy? Where is a Black Helen? How dare they show them as they probably really were?

but persons of color should play characters of color.

Imagine if the opposite were true. Only whites should play white characters.

Just another example of black privilege.

Oh brother.

Using this logic, only white people should be voicing white characters. Can you imagine the screaming and shrieking that would ensue if this was followed? Of course, it would be racist.

Maybe they can have an episode where Brian chases all the Negroes out of town.

Seth MacFarland always was destined to be targeted. He’s a prime example of a leftist who would be eaten by his own, simply because he chose to create a funny show that ridicules most everyone and anyone in a completely politically incorrect manner. Family Guy will never be the same.

At least it looks like the leftish press is permitting the use of “Black” (capitalized) instead of the obsolete “African-American”. One small step for language.

It's too bad Don Knotts isn't still around (or is he?). He'd make a great Darth Vader.

Just so I'm clear. It makes sense to sane people that only a negro can play the part of a negro character in a cartoon show. Just want to be sure of what I'm hearing ...

“Family Guy” is I believe, the most evil show I have ever seen. It pushes every hard core leftist and Satanic idea there is.
