Many of the folks you have listed have found their most success in American productions, and a few are even mentioned Mar 08, 10:02
Did you read the article? Several said they had to come to Hollywood for better roles. {nm} Mar 08, 10:08
Reading Articles is so Over-Rated. Mar 08, 10:15
I read it and it's obvious that the author doesn't understand British culture. {nm} Mar 08, 10:20
BuzzFeed (1/5/15): The Rise Of The Black British Actor In America Mar 08, 10:23
The LAT is talking about the British Film industry and how it's dominated by an elite class educated in private schools. {nm} Mar 08, 10:25
So not about 'actors of color' as you originally posted but more an issue of class, which affects the white working class equally. Mar 08, 10:31
No, the people in postions of power are white. Persons of color just aren't considered in non-race specific roles. {nm} Mar 08, 10:36
You're wrong. The people in power are upper class. People who aren't part of that elite are are considered period. Mar 08, 10:46
are *not*. {nm} Mar 08, 10:47
And actors of color face a double whammy of class and race. {nm} Mar 08, 11:15
It seems like u just make all this up. {nm} Mar 08, 13:08
Affects the white working class, yes, but like the article suggests, probably not equally. {nm} Mar 08, 11:10
theguardian (9/28/15): Roles in UK for black and minority ethnic actors worse than ever, claims David Oyelowo Mar 08, 10:25
A similar story is already linked in the LAT article Mar 08, 10:29
You don't say. Worse than the multi-multi-millionaire, ultra-famous black American actors? Say it isn't so. {nm} Mar 08, 10:30
You can believe whatever you want to believe. Persons of color just aren't considered in non-race specific roles. {nm} Mar 08, 10:35
You just don't get it. Unlike the US the issue is all about class. Racism is secondary to that. {nm} Mar 08, 10:50
even people in the upper class face racism. {nm} Mar 08, 10:56
who can still experience racism despite attending privileged schools. Thats one of the points of the article. {nm} Mar 08, 11:12
Yes, I believe people who LIVED through the racism firsthand rather than the peanut gallery. {nm} Mar 08, 11:17
Who are the 'Peanut Gallery'? {nm} Mar 08, 11:19
OK, so I googled it. I'm presuming that your response to people that disagree with you is to make derogatory remarks... Mar 08, 11:34
Not to take away from your experience, but no you haven't lived through racism experienced by actors of color. Mar 08, 12:17
You are so wrong. People of color today haven't experienced racism either. They just want to be hand fed. There Mar 08, 12:49
Person of color over here who has experienced racism first-hand. Overt racism. "Ching chong ching" racism. Mar 08, 16:07
So Viscount Weymouths wife will only have problems with her class not her race,touch naive me thinks. {nm} Mar 08, 11:47

If you want to experience actual discrimination, try being overweight in Hollywood. {nm} Mar 08, 11:18
People aren't born overwweight. {nm} Mar 08, 11:29
Ohhh, so they deserve to be discriminated against. And yes, people are born with genetic dispostions towards obesity. {nm} Mar 08, 12:47
Didn't say that, but weight is not a protected class of discrimination. {nm} Mar 08, 14:01
Wow, did you just say that? This makes my case. The whining is about entitlement, not equal treatment of equal talent. {nm} Mar 08, 16:35
Honestly I think this is the worst comment u have made Mar 08, 17:42
Some of you are heavily invested in disproving the existence of privilege. Mar 08, 12:43
Maybe some are just more interested in focusing on a common solution rather than proof of existence Mar 08, 18:22
Cont. {nm} Mar 08, 18:23
Just because I don't want to fight about privilage doesn't mean I don't agree it exist {nm} Mar 08, 18:24
