    “Hollywood doesn’t have good or bad motivations,” says Aslan. “Hollywood has one motivation. And that’s to make money. And so, if you can convince Hollywood that you can make money by not pedalling in stereotypes about brown people, they'll stop doing so.”http://www.bbc.com/culture/story/20190620-how-muslims-became-the-good-guys-on-tv …

        "Brown people", amazing how you crazy lefties simplify people into pigmentation categories. You really are the dumbest people on earth.

        If it were really all about money no R rated movie would be made because G to PG-13 movies make more than R rated films. Hollywood also brings about their own visions to projects.

        Not exactly true Reza. The Hollywood elite have a really close relationship with the pentagon & defence contractors. They’ve profited heavily of the Terrorist brown stereotype

        it's not like folks aren't writing stories abt everyday Muslims. It's that gate-keepers are too busy greenlighting projects that either affirm their world view, or 1s that scream *see how patriotic and well-assimilated these Muslims r?* the diaspora is more complex and beautiful

        Almost, Hollywood needs to be convinced that they can make _more_ money by not peddling stereotypes than they can peddling them. Until then, the stereotypes will continue to dominant.
