Comments by "Miguel D Lewis" (@MiguelDLewis) on "Yellowface is a bad look, Hollywood" video.

  1. Middle-Eastern people are not Caucasian and nor are Europeans. There's no paleoanthropological evidence that either group spent any considerable time in the Caucasus region. There is no evidence the Europid phenotypes originated in that region either. You're basing your ideas on outdated racism imitating science.

  2. I agree. I'm very glad I boycotted the live action Ghost in the Shell. ScarJo isn't even a good actress anyway. Unfortunately though, I think that producers still win even if their whitewashed movies flop. Maybe they don't want to make money from these movies. Maybe they use these whitewashed movies to fan the flames of hatred against white people and keep everyone divided. It's probably a divide and conquer tactic of social engineering, keeping us subconsciously segregated.

  3. 1. Yellowface was used throughout history to legitimatize racist attitudes against Asians. Yellowface roles played by famous Hollywood actors helped brainwash the public into supporting the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882. It also helped fan the flames of racism against the Japanese following the Pearl Harbor attack, helping FDR get support for passing Executive Order 9066. This order led to the kidnapping and imprisonment of 120,000 innocent Japanese-Americans, many of whom were soldiers and decorated veterans who fought against the Nazis. 2. Never in American history has "Whiteface" been used to legitimatize policies which specifically targeted white people for exclusion and oppression. 3. No one read I Am Legend. That's why no one cared. Will Smith made it famous.
