Just perused the full cast list for this very “realistic” show set in New York City called Girls. Really realistic parts for minorities include:
Sidné Anderson as “Jamaican Nanny”
Jermel Howard as “Young Black Guy”
Moe Hindi as “Roosevelt Hotel Bellhop”
and Jo Yang as “Tibetan Nanny”
Cool! Indie! Realistic!
yeah….
yeah….
In real life POC don’t exist outside of stereotypes and secondary roles. Obviously.
So mad this was screening at Brown. Although I guess that’s a missed chance to ask the creator wtf she was thinking…
Cord is constantly calling all of us on...I love him for it.
BRIMMING WITH AUTHENTICITY.
Being white is tough.
I mean. There are plenty of “indie” “hipsters” who don’t know or interact with nonwhite people. So, yes, realistic.
