[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't watch a lot of TV but what I see I'd agree the forced or faked diversity is over the top these days. I live and work around DC, which is pretty diverse, but nothing is ever anything like the diversity the shows try to promote. They're not the only guilty ones. My employer's public facing materials is all "Muslim woman in hijab working closely with very obviously progressive gay man and everyone getting along wonderfully" which only makes me roll my eyes.

On a similar line of thinking, the fake diversity in historical movies rubs me in the wrong way too. It's become all about an agenda, not authenticity or accuracy. [/quote]

It's about inclusivity. If a character does not have to be a certain race, do you feel they should always be white because most Americans are (still) white?

Yes, the one-from-every-column diversity approach is a bit obvious, but I think it's a vast improvement over older TV shows where every character no matter how minor was always white. [/quote]
