New Year, same old pod.
Given recent controversies over whitewashing and diversity in film, the boys (one Asian, one Jewish) dive into the history of whitewashing and racism in film. From Al Jolson in burnt cork, to Mr Yunioshi, and of course the hullabaloo over Ghost in the Shell, we try to suss out the roots and notable instances throughout the years. It's not just a black and white issue folks!
Plus: Antoine Griezmann in full blackbody, Assassin's Creed and the inconsistent accents, White Euros playing Arabs, Fu Manchu/Charlie Chan dichotomy, evolution of South Asian stereotypes, and ambiguously ethnic actors.
