To which I could name many.
Name them then.
I got nothing to say here.

Just off the top of my head...

Captain Sisko, Jon Stewart, Virgil Hawkins, Animorphs' Cassie, Lando Calrissian, Mace Windu, Captain Typho, Kenan & Kel, Stephen Franklin, Teal'c, Rak'nor, Victor Stone, Dr. Bashir, Geordi La Forge, Luke Cage, Mari McCabe, Kar Vastor, Nick Rostu, Nina Campbell, Dean Thomas, Lee Jordan, Quizmaster Albert, Dreama, any movie or TV show with Will Smith, Morgan Freeman, Whoopi Goldberg, Danny Glover, Halle Berry, Denzel Washington, Angela Bassett, Sinbad, James Earl Jones, Janet Jackson, Vivica A. Fox, Nadia Nascimento...

Do you want me to keep going, because we could be here for a while. Way I see it, it should be quality, not quantity, and shoehorning in diversity and representation doesn't mean a hill of beans if the final product lacks quality. Would you not say that's actually a disservice to black empowerment? I feel as if many of you would agree, when you're wanting more representation, and then when someone like the general from SG-1's Tangent shows up and gets little development, you complain. Make up your minds!

Nice list. Looks like you just looked up PoC characters and actors without thinking about them.

Go ahead keep going.

Whatever convinces you your side is right and anyone outside is a liar. Kinda the same way Admiral X can't possibly be a native, eh? Because all true natives would side with the DNC and not the racist GOP. :lol:

Doesn't ignore the reality there were dozens if not hundreds of black characters and actors in '90s media that many in the current gen prefer to what we got now because the writing was better and not hamfisted. They were literally everywhere, but we need more black diversity, I guess.

Know what you are? A gatekeeper. Maybe you need the same comeuppance Sinbad did in Good Burger with your car? Maybe it'd be better for an annoying ghost to sing Henry VII and 99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall. No, I got it! Put on trial like Jon Stewart. ;)

You use that word Gatekeeper. You don't know what it means. Especially when every time you post here you gatekeep about something.

But go ahead keep posting these PoC characters and actors without a thought about them.

I am sure plenty of people here will take the time to break down those names you listed.

Yes it is, and you prove the point exactly - that nothing's ever gonna convince you when you've got your heart set in stone, as you and I both know that was a very small sampling. You can't dispute that.

After your trial, I think maybe you should be thrown in the slammer for 40 years. No, actually, I think maybe you need to be sold a faulty, talking car. Prove you're not ready.

But then given how often your many schemes fail, I'm sure we'll be back here. AWWWWWW HERE IT GOES. WAAAAAAAAAAA :mrgreen:

"You're the meatball. YOU'RE THE MEATBALL." Because you don't know what meatballs are. How sad.

Yet again the same exact thing can be said of you. You have proven that time and time again on this board.

Like I said someone else can waste their time breaking down your list. I won't because for the same exact reason you just said of me.

That nothing will convince you and your heart is set in stone.

You are absolutely convinced that a new Stargate series will be 'woke' despite the fact there is absolutely no proof that it will be. You just let your own personal beliefs get in the way. And nothing or no one will change your mind.
