        The point is that most black actors can only get roles in parts written for black people, at least on Broadway.

        Which ironically could mean that Broadway has been more racist than TV or film? Ironic.

        🤔 So, it's whitewashing when white people do it, but cause for celebration if black people do it. Gotcha. #FakeNews #hypocrisy

        Whitewashing has a specific definition. How about we just find the best actors for a role?

        Is this news really? Who cares what race they are, as long as they can play the part?
