In class we read the article
"Broadcasting a World of Whiteness" by Jon Caramanica it
was about how television shows don't have diverse cast. The show
"Girls" shown on HBO has brought some attention about a certain issue
people have. This show and plenty others lack diversity in its cast.
The particular races they have in shows are usually white. The
article explains how a lot of the shows are an example of a university in cast
members. . This show has an all white cast and they sometimes make racist
comments. This issue has causes so much controversy about race. Not only
the cast of different shows are not diverse enough but also the scriptwriters
and even the back stage crew are not diverse as well.
I don't think T.V. is diverse enough because
of the shows that are shown on T.V. everyday. I believe producers are the main
reason why the cast are not diverse, they are reasonable for who is on the
show. I think that producers just put on shows with cast that they think will
get the most views. All white cast has come to be such a normal thing on
T.V. shows that producers have not found anything wrong with that. I think T.V.
shows should make more diverse shows because the world isn’t made of just one
race. If shows were more diverse more people would get use to it and it might
be a good way to bring everyone together as one.
