More posts on the topic would be great! Anything to raise awareness, you know? I fully admit that prior to the whole Airbender debacle, I wasn't aware of these issues at all. For example, that movie "21," about the MIT kids who formed a blackjack team and made a ton of money from card-counting? The real ones were a bunch of Asian kids. In the film? White. When the movie came out, it never even occurred to me. I know better now-- Prince of Persia really upset me, too. I'd probably have gone to see it had it been cast properly (I love me some action films).
That's such a good point, about how hard it is to find good non-villainous costumes for rajsmith to wear. One of those things most people would never think about, but it's so telling.
