Again as you point out, white privilege was very much the way in Hollywood of that time.
Merle Oberon had to conceal that she was Asian and the actors who were "out" as Asian and Black were largely excluded. The paucity of examples you can find says it all.
What you write is a great retort for anyone who claims that there was no "white privledge" in the arts. |
