It works everytime. This is pathetic and degrading.

Sorry but that's just ridiculous. By your logic any afro-american actor playing almost any character form the 17th century to the 19th century (and possibly up to the 50s or 60s) would be playing a subservient role.

They would be because that's how history was.

"Afro American"? lol. No one says that.
