ethnic

Man is it hard for an actor of colour in England to get work that doesn't involve an accent! Knowing your going into casting rooms and only being seen because they need to tick an equal opps box! i don't know whether to be offended or to be pro to the cause! The BBC are saying that each tv show has to have a token ethnic person in it otherwise they cannot air! And the stuff they write for East Asian actors all involve accents...as though we all talk like that!

But anyway there are more important things in life but knowing that NOT one show in the uk has a chinese or yellow person as a main character is bit mad! you get black brown but no yellow!and the one person they do showcase on tv ends up to be selling bootleg DVDS! FUDGE-ING HELL! American TV has more East Asians on tv these days but the community here is under represented in the media! If you've ever had the chance to come to the UK you will see chinese people more or less in every major city! cause their sure ain't a shortage of chinese resturants!

Sorry if this sounds like a wrant its not! Just was wondering if there is anyone else who shares similar views!? But is a bit of a wrant! lol

all love and sending good karma
