The MP3s for this episode and 124 seem to be missing from the RSS feed, so my podcast software isn’t able to download them automatically.

I hope this is fixable. I’m looking forward to listening to these.

Amy Pohler started in both Baby’s mama and Hamlet 2 where off colored racial references were used for cheap laughs. I’m not sure why anyone would think she’s be above using such unimaginative cheap humor.

Comment on ATR 121 – casting actors, Australian blackface, Derrion Albert, privilege and oppression by Keith

@Roger Green To be fair that is the most ridiculous argument I have heard in some time. None of the characters you have listed are iconic. That was why the race of the characters where changed to give popular black actors in films that quite frankly needed all the start power they can get because of a lack of a quality script, and John Stewart started off as a substitute Green lantern added to DC in order introduce more minority characters. They did it because they really had nothing to lose.

On the other hand when the source material takes place in regions of the world where whites are the minority or where themes involved people other than white Hollywood takes liberties to interject white characters.

I thought the folks at racialious decided to delete posts such as Roger’s since they are dismissive and reactionary?
