A) What is your source/evidence for Equity being majority non-white (something that seems unlikely, considering that the adult population of the country is not yet majority non-white)?
B) Are you seeing your perceived non-white majority reflected in the casting of professional stage productions (which still look majority white to my eyes)?
C) What would be wrong with AEA being majority non-white?
D) What show was canceled over gospel music? Robert LePage's show was canceled because he had white people dressed as Southern slaves singing negro spirituals. I'm sure you can appreciate the difference in those two scenarios.
E) I'm also sure if you give it some thought, you could find many differences between white people playing the black slaves that historical white people owned versus Americans of all colors playing the historical figures that birthed America. While both scenarios would spark a profound conversation, I'm sure you can see the problem with white people casting themselves as slaves. |
