Jena Malone and Ruth Negga have the exact same skin tone, I don’t get why you have to change it to Ruth (on your CF dreamcast). If you don’t think Jena Malone is bad ass enough (for the role of Johanna Mason), watch Sucker Punch. She was AMAZING!

…. this has reached a whole new level of “colorblind” ridiculousness, like I think the racists have actually convinced themselves that they LITERALLY can’t see color.

they’re basically identical twins!!!1

I KNOW IT’S SUPER HARD FOR ME TO BE JUST ASIAN ENOUGH FOR THE SILVER SCREEN BECAUSE I AM ACTUALLY ASIAN SO THIS IS A HUGE HANDICAP TO OVERCOME

BUT I THINK THROUGH HARD WORK AND BEING A MODEL MINORITY I HAVE GOTTEN THERE.

PLEASE, JUST LET ME TRY OUT I TAKE EXCELLENT PICS AND I CAN IMITATE WHITE PEOPLE BEING ASIAN, NO PROBLEM. 

LIKE I AM SORRY BECAUSE THE CLOSEST THING I HAD TO AN ORIENTAL-LOOKING RICE BASKET WAS MY CHEAP PLASTIC STRAINER BUT LOOK I TRIED.

LIKE I KNOW I AM JUST NOT AS FIERCE AS AUDREY BUT I CAN LEARN. I’M GOOD AT LEARNING!

I TOO CAN BE A SHY AND DELICATE LOTUS BLOSSOM 

I TOO CAN SING ABOUT MY LOVE FOR A WHITE MAN WHO LEFT ME PREGGERS

I TOO CAN LOOK WISE YET BEFUDDLED, AS FITTING RE: MY MYSTICAL HERITAGE

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PICK ME HOLLYWOOD

I KNOW I AM NOT WHITE

BUT I PROMISE BEING ASIAN IS NOT A HANDICAP

WHEN PLAYING AN ASIAN PERSON IN A MOVIE!
