Apu's stereotype is a hard working, intelligent foreigner. He's a medical student. The audacity of this guy to take offense to that, rather than a much more accurate depiction of such people as leeching scumbags, shows how derelict blacks have been in protecting their narrative.

Just heard the filmmaker on NPR. His perspective on the character is absurd and histrionic.

The problem is now with The Simpsons - the problem is with casting directors who use the "Apu accent" when auditioning South Asian actors. But no one would watch a film about that.

3. Jokes are jokes but they become harmful when people get a backlash from such jokes. Imagine a USA without Eng, Drs, Business owners, ...Hell.. just imagine this country without all the Indian/South East American doctors...Not a nice pic... isn't it?

2. We Indian Americans give our 100%, make an honest living, make a difference without asking for attention. But we do expect mutual respect as one citizen/human gives to another. As a minority we don't receive any special advantage neither do we receive any ad what majority gets

1. As an Indian American who are also called Model Citizens.. It hurts to see how we r portrayed in USA. We r Drs, Engs, lawyers, teachers/professors, business ppl, politicians, UN Ambassadors, Journalists, Movie Directors/Actors...the list goes on & not limited to store owners.
