Heee. I think I can intellectually understand how people could not see Jason Momoa as being a person of color, 'cause he is awfully pale for a Pacific Islander, but...like, on a gut level, I don't get it. Because I looked at him and went, "Heeeeey, I think he's one of mine! Awesome!" and I am very weirdly protective of all, like, two actors who are A/PI.
Damn our cultural oppression of the world! Damn us to hell!
And well, you know, black characters are just so boring and poorly-developed. If only they had the vast and stunning array of characterization and backstory that a character like John Sheppard has!
