Yale-Educated Lupita Nyong’o Admits She Never Heard of ‘The Odyssey’ Before Helen of Troy Casting

She calls herself a Kenyan-Mexican, so perhaps a better question is why was a foreign student accepted to Yale when 95% of American applicants are rejected?
 
And because she's white, and what you describe as "purty" even though she may not have been a real person, this is why you think all the rest of the world should be as enthralled with the tale or poem as the West & Europe?
I didn’t say “enthralled,” nor did I say the rest of the world. But someone accepted to the Ivy League should have at least HEARD of it. It speaks to the quality of her high school education, yet the majority of American valedictorians are rejected from Yale - and she gets in.
