[QUOTE="Alexis, post: 220315, member: 68"] But these are just common popular TV tropes. These types of characters are the basis for most television drama. I can fully understand why producers, and actors don't want to go after such storylines and especially not make them a recurring thing. Who wants to play a racist or someone that is homophobic or whatever. And do we really need that on TV all the time? Can we not move forward and show positive representations of people without white people explaining why racism and homophobia is bad. I feel that that sets things back when things should move forward. [/QUOTE]
