1. The powers-that-be just want to show the America that they hope will one day emerge: a happy land of people of all backgrounds living harmoniously together.
2. To be fair, the number of Asians and Hispanics has increased dramatically in 2022 (and also gay people).
3. Here in the Los Angeles area, Caucasians still account for the majority of people in commercials, and often it is the Caucasians who get the key roles.
4. I am so old (85) that I remember when African Americans were introduced into TV shows. For example, if a scene occurred in a restaurant, there would be a nice well-dressed African American couple enjoying a meal. There were no speaking parts for them until later.
a. I am guessing that such scenes were not allowed in the South until later. Just as motion pictures would often cut certain scenes in the South. Today, Hollywood cuts scenes that offend Chinese movie authorities!!!
