The Simpsons: No more White Actors Doing Voices for Black Characters

Interesting....the race card tossing leftists finally get their way and segregate people based on skin color. So let me get this straight..according to leftists there is an actual difference between black skin and white skin to the point where they feel whites and blacks should only be allowed to voice cartoon characters of the dame akin color. Hmmm the simpsons are yellow...so lefties....who voices them?

Do we have different water fountains for blacks and whites now as well? What about at the soda fountains...do we have separate sections now? MLK would be so proud of modern day leftists. They have undone 5 decades of race relations like it never even happened.

FFS, will all you right wing overreaction outrage artists just boycott Simpsons already so the rest of us can enjoy the show?

The show has been on for 31 years. Have you literally been ****ting yourself over white voice over actors voicing minority characters this whole time?

I'm so happy for you that you FINALLY can enjoy a cartoon with a race appropriate voice over. Your life must have literally sucked for the last 3 decades.

Not to derail your latest post of nonsense, but were guys not the same ones arguing for 'no gays' signs going up these days effectively replicating the mentality of the 'no colored' signs decades ago?

No gays? lol what?!

Sounds like someone has been watching CNNs pocket watch pendulating back and forth.

Funny. Do you call the gays who think that straight people shouldn't play gay characters "outrage artists" too?

Or the reverse. Most gay and lesbian actors play straight characters including in romance scenes and stories.

Can't remember his wife's name nor their litter of children. :)

If that's the game Follywood wants to play, then non-White actors should stop playing White characters (example: Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury). Fair's fair after all.

so he appears in the movies as a white guy but played by a black one? That is remarkable. Ooh wait, that is the same silly stuff as some people might about doctor who and other changes to established characters. Got it.

To have a black Nick Fury is an movie makers freedom of choosing who he thinks would be a great Nick Fury. The movie makers thought it was Jackson. No issue there.

Now in the Simpsons you had white actors voicing black people, which is a very different thing all together.

He said his wife's name when he introduced her long ago... Apu said something like, "this is my wife, she is my sister and her name is _____"

NBC had this problem in the 1950’s.

When “Amos n’ Andy” premiered on the blue network in 1929, it was an instant hit. Everything stopped when it came on. People who didn’t have radios yet crowded into department stores and bars to hear the show. It remained consistantly popular through the early 1950’s, when the time came to switch to television.

The problem was that Amos was a guy named Freeman Gosden, and Andy was Charles Cornell, both white mem.

One would think that the entertainment industry would have learned.

But, as with the protests were seeing now, things haven’t changed nearly as much as we have fooled ourselves into believing they had.

Should we look forward now to an all-white cast of Hamilton?
