We need more articles like this that speaks to how everyone is marginalized unless you are Caucasian. People of color suffer these injustices on a daily basis. Why? We don’t look the same speak the same. We are still human beings, we are all the same. Color should not define us.

Grace Randolph IS a problem.

1.) Has anyone seen the alleged posts? 2.) Let's just clear this up: she's not a leading actress in a Star Wars film. The term is being used to try to prop up her useless subplot casino trek that helped ruin a once-great saga.
-
I asked has anyone seen the posts that allegedly drove Tran to leave social media. Show me the legit posts. To my knowledge no one has seen them. And she's no lead actress in the film. The lead actress was Daisy Ridley. But stick to your baseless name calling. It's helps so much.

There’s articles ones can google but here’s one just to help you.pic.twitter.com/OGdVC1J0ij

If you can't see that her character was useless, that's on you. Her subplot to the casino was a blatant nod to social justice warrior garbage (rich people bad, free animals, etc.) And she got many killed when she stopped Finn from sacrificing himself.
-
Actually, Rose only stopped Finn from killing himself inconsequentially. He wouldn’t have done anything, the cannon would have remained intact. That’s confirmed, so don’t even try to argue otherwise.
-
Confirmed by who? Your mum?
-
Rose states before they leave the hanger that they’re barely holding together, but Ski Speeders are all they have. Poe puts his foot through one, because it’s falling apart Finn’s literally begins to fall apart and melt as he gets closer to the canon. That’s all signposting

Some of the responses here are absolute bullshit. A) She was absolutely targeted because of her ethnicity. To argue otherwise is disingenuous at best. B) THE LAST JEDI is arguably the best Star Wars film to date and Tran is wonderful in the film.

Using a Trump gif tells me everything I need to know about you.

She shouldn't have been harassed I 100% agree with that those fans are toxic. But man does TLJ have a lot of problems. It's biggest one being that it doesn't set up an exciting EP IX. TLJ imo is the worst SW movie since the prequels.

Nobody cares that she was Asian, it was that her character arc came out of nowhere, and served no real purpose to the plot.
-
And? You think that's an ok reason to harass some??
-
No if you harass someone because of race, ethnicity or gender it is wrong, but people are acting as if that is the only reason the Last Jedi was so controversial. In actuality, it was a poor Star Wars movie and her character was emblematic of the film.
-
The harassment she experienced had nothing to do with the quality of the movie, whatever one believes it is. Stop detracting from the real issue: an actor was harassed to the point of fleeing a space of discourse simply because she is a person of color. That’s it.
-
You’re reaching when you say “simply because she was a person of color” I’m 100% that was a part of it but let’s not pretend it wasn’t also nerds who got their panties in a twist.
-
So yes, but ultimately no.
-
I’m sorry, I’m confused by this reply? Did you mean it as a reply to the most recent addition to the thread?
-
i.e., “fans” who troll on that level and try and justify it with canon or the integrity of the original version/franchise tend to specifically target people of color. It’s still, at its core, about race and racism.
