Update: it doesn’t. POC are marginal and on the sidelines throughout, except for the episode that features Dev Patel, but even that one employs colorblind casting. And therefore the fact of his British-Indian identity is ancillary.

I recommend people watch
@mindykaling’s@4WeddingsOnHulu instead. This series takes head on the topic of culture, religion, class, and ethnicity as they intersect with love and romance.1 reply 3 retweets 14 likesShow this thread
