So now we stifle any art we assume may be insulting? Seriously?

who would this show be insulting to? Certainly not you. I mean if the premise was White people being enslaved, this convo might be different

I'm a Jew and could have objected to The Man In The High Tower on identical grounds.

Jews---not because of their Jewishness but because of their whiteness---have a great deal more power in Hollywood than black folks.

(I realizeI'm treading close to dangerous stereotypes here but I want to be clear that this is a comparison between Jews and black ppl...

Not a general statement about Jewish power or lack thereof.)

Ergo, it is more likely that if an antisemitic script goes to a network for approval, changes will be made. Not definitely, but more likely.

Black folks, for very clear historical reasons, have no such confidence. If the script is racist, it's unlikely anyone will stop it.
