[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would she be given these multiple failed opportunities if she wasnt Indian?
I have seen her other work. Nothing memorable except she is always hooking into a white guy.[/quote]

Hahah you think she got these opportunities BECAUSE she’s Indian? I have a bridge to sell you. [/quote]

Yeah and I’ll throw in some oceanfront property in Arizona for free.  [/quote]
SOLD!  Mindy Kaling famously got her big break in the writers' room of "The Office" because of NBC's diversity program.  Even she admits that she was "a diversity hire."  That is not in dispute.

Unfortunately but not surprisingly, Mindy yanked up the ladder behind her.  Every single syllable of her writing is in desperate need for white heterosexual male validation.  PPs are correct -- She always casts herself, or her thinly disguised Indian doppelganger, prostrating herself before an indifferent white man.  If she could press a button that would magically turn her into a thin blonde white woman, she would jump on it with both feet.  Other Indian women have taken notice.

This should surprise no one because Mindy is much more conservative, especially on race, than her white female fanbase acknowledges.  Black characters on her programs tick every box on the stereotype scorecard -- the sassy black woman, the Mandingo black man who can't control himself, the simpering black man who hates his blackness so much that he castrates himself for white (and Mindy's) amusement.

Mindy's not alone in her family harboring a racist mindset against blacks.  Her brother, Vijay Chokal-Ingam, like Mindy, is the child of a medical doctor and attended the finest private schools his entire life.  Despite these advantages, Vijay failed to gain admission to medical school.  Proving there are only two races in America -- Black and Not Black -- Vijay blamed affirmative action and those damned black people who get all the breaks for that flurry of rejection letters.  He reapplied, claiming black heritage, and was admitted.  See, those unqualified blacks took his spot!  Well, it turns out maybe those medical schools that rejected him knew what they were doing.  Vijay couldn't hack it!  He dropped out!  Oops!  Meanwhile, the black students with the same academic qualifications succeeded where Vijay, with all his wealth and social privilege, failed.  (And, no, I'm not buying Vijay's story that he dropped out because he decided that medicine wasn't for him.  No, uh-uh, nope, no way.  The fact that he never talks about his grades tells me all I need to know.)

Mindy is no different.  She owes her career to black people's continuing civil rights struggles, yet she and her non-black benefactors all pretend otherwise.
