So your are upset a POC isn't an idiot?
Because when you have a chance to work under a guy that's made several high-monkeymaking series, won awards, who has one of the biggest movies ever... as an actress, the only sensible move is to say YES.
Turning him down is what you call a stupid career move. The kind you can regret for the rest of your life. For that matter, in general turning legit high profile work down in the acting business is stupid period.

Say Joss asked you to work on a show with him tomorrow. You could turn him down, listing all your reasons you dislike him, then go tell everyone what you did. What would happen then? You'd feel good for an hour or two maybe because in your head, you did something, but in reality, you'd have helped nobody and only benefited your ego. Nothing would change, but you would still have something to complain about and hate. If that's what you would want.
Or you could accept the offer, and once you're working with him, show him a different/better way to portray X-situation/character so that the end product is something that can be at least a step in the direction of making things better. Maybe it wouldn't be perfect, but at the end of the project, you can be proud of yourself for being the change you want to see in the world, big or small. If that's what you would want.

The big jumps are easiest to see, but a lot of small steps will get you further in the end.

I feel like you're the one to ask.
Re: So your are upset a POC isn't an idiot?
Folks (meaning social justice warriors) have decided that Joss is misogynist.
They'll cite various things, but the biggest offenses I'm aware of are: The Buffybot from Buffy, the entire concept of Dollhouse, and now Mal and Inara interact on Firefly.
