Hey Bo Derek? You look like an idiot.

Remember this? Well, the good times just keep on comin’. I’m still wondering why white actresses continue to slap on curly wigs or wear cornrows to appear ethnic/questionable when it would probably be easier (and a helluva lot less distracting) to just go straight to the source.

Okay, I know why. And it pisses me off.

  3. Too bad we live in a world where this still matters. IE where Black actresses are not cast as White women. Then we’d know the time had come to stop being offended. And alas. We’re not there yet.
