Fang, sometimes, we pat ourselves on the head for our own liberal awarenes and openness. But I think we can hardly pretend to know what others experience. Even Harvard profs have reported what they or their kids go through, in Cambridge, of all places (not referring to th arrest issue a few years ago. It’s more than that.)
The arts are an interesting area where I suspect race is not a limiter, in itself. Supplies, etc, cost, but many have made forms of art not dependent on big expenses.
And “the arts” includes the acting realm.
So, I hope we can get past the judgment passed on this one young woman.
