[quote=Anonymous]If we lived in a time where race was not relevant, colorblind casting would always make complete sense, even in productions (unlike Bridgerton) that were trying to accurately convey a historical time and place that was not actually very diverse. To colorblind people, the race of characters would barely be noticeable. But race is the number one or two preoccupation right now of Americans, whether in regard to BLM or white supremacy or reparations or Latin American refugee issues. And we are also urged by our leaders to focus on issues of race when considering current injustices as well as the history of our nation! So it seems a little odd to me that some people in this thread think it’s weird that viewers notice race! Of course they do. I think it’s value-neutral, in a time when we have learned that saying you’re colorblind is a) untrue and b) indicative of your racial privilege.[/quote]
