    'And American = white by your parochial viewpoint? Many of the minorities in America are 'American'.'

    My personal viewpoint and parochial blah,blah,?
    No, because of what the friggin Almanac says. Why, does it threaten you?
    Naturally, we have to argue what "AMERICAN" means now. Oh, 'American' means everybody of different ethnics & quadruple-shades of color who happen to live in the U.S. That's what you meant right?
    You knew damn well what I meant, but cannot escape your rhetoric and "let's make a big issue out of everythingmentality".

        The bottom line,my politcally-correct frustrated self-entitled minority-person:
        If you do not like how the American cinema operates, go to Asian countries and watch(or act in) movies there,and "bulk" up.

              'Racism'.
              hehe By all means.
              Does that mean WHITES are cast as non-"stereotypes" in her country of origin. THis is the U.S. where the majority of people are(gasp!)of caucasian ancestry. It's not racism, but reality. If we lived in Africa(not Capetown)or Asia,would we see WHITE actors as lead characters? When she becomes a major star, then it will be different.

                Also why are white actors always being white? WTF that is SO stereotypical!
                Just because you're white means you're white? Why can't white people act as Asians or aliens?

                    I don't think she does at all. She's had quite a diverse career.

                      I know this thread is seven years old, but it's one of the silliest I've ever encountered on this site which is saying something. Exactly how is playing an Indian a 'stereotype'? Because all Indian women are the same?
                      It's an ordinary high school day. Except that it's not.

                        Would not call Kalinda a stereotypical character.
