Color Blind

When it comes to TV shows or movies I think of myself as color blind. I love watching any show or movie no matter who is in it or what is it about, as long as it has a good plot and it is interesting. In fact if I had to bet I would think that the majority of the populations are the same way. That we really do not care about the nationality of the actors, just as long as it’s entertaining and that we enjoy it. The constant need for people to bring up the whole race card, in my opinion was gotten quiet old and outdated. I think that the entertainment industry had come a long way over the last 40 or so years. The minority percentage in movies and TV has risen to almost the percent that the minorities are in the population as a whole (at least major minorities). But I would say that the lesser minorities do need to be represented more in movies and TV shows. I really liked how the show Friends dealt with the race card by not dealing with the race card. In fact I cannot really think of an episode that they even touch on race. Even when Ross’s girlfriend was Asian, they never mentioned anything about it. I think if more shows did this, people would stop talking about discrimination due to nationality and more focus one greater issue that affect the whole population in the US or even the world.
