That's about it!

Re: "Normal" movies were more diverse in the past than they are now

[(Anonymous)]

Not as sure about movies in general, but I feel TV definitely was.

Like Fresh Prince and the Cosby Show weren't "black" shows. They were shows. That also happened to have black casts. Same goes for stuff like Sister Sister and Smart Guy and Kenan & Kel.

And then you had stuff like the Magic School Bus and Captain Planet and even the Burger King kids. And yeah, it can be argued "tokenism" and stuff. But as long as the character weren't defined by their race (which they weren't), I really don't see problem.
