Um, I hope you know that mistrelsy was the first type of media that America managed to spread around the WORLD, not just in Europe. Hence why a lot of countries have anti-Black attitudes against Black people even if the Black population is an extremely low number. And modern Western media isn't much better due to stererotyping that were mostly created by mistrelsy (and it's doubly worse that Western countries don't internationally distribute movies with a huge Black casts, which are usually movies that buck the stereotypes).

Plus it's pointless saying this is a Western-centered racism when the movie is produced and directed mostly by Americans and backed by an American studio and uses a mostly American cast. It's going to reflect American attitude towards race.

... By all means, do own up on the issue of the Transatlantic Slave Trade and the fallout that continues until today, it's the right thing to do. But you didn't invent racism against black people, nor were the fist to spread it. o_o

Again, the only thing I was trying to explain here was that while yellowfacing (and any kind of minstrelsy-related performance) is racist due to the origins of the practice and its historical context; we cannot make a western-based judgement on what a Korean actress like Donna Bae might have felt or not. It's an interesting question I'd like to see adressed, but the comparation is lacking when applied to an East Asian person who might not know about this, because it's not part of their culture.

(For example: Certainly it's not a part of mine, but I've done my best to read on the issue to educate myself, since I spend so much time in the Anglo-based side of the internet, and Social Issues are an interest of mine. The thing being, I have had to go out of my way to gain an understanding of it, because it's not a part of my life IRL.)
