Gonna quickly throw in an epic quote I found on this article.
KJKJ: Gene Roddenberry, with balls of brass, got up on national tv and said, “hey people, if a geneticist took all the best DNA from planet Earth and put it together to make the best human the world has ever seen - he wouldn’t be a white guy.”
This is why I find the casting of a white actor in this role to be so repugnant. They are not whitewashing an Asian role, they are saying that the best genetic material that the entirety of this world and it’s diversity has to offer….still comes from a white guy.Reblogging again for that
Omg yes
Basically.
I am so pissed about this. I’m getting more and more terrified to see this film.

I least expected that hooped nose rings (nathni) would be worn at Cannes 2013.
A few old time versions (Ganga Jamuna, Punjab 18th cent, Mortimer Menpes illustration, 1910)
As it happens the origins of nose ornaments is obscure though Altekar and other historians believe it is not wholly indigenous.

Don’t be shy! If you see me, feel free to say hi! Yes, that means you, robot staring and pointing from across the room mouthing the words “Mr. Saturday” to your friend. :D
How can we reconcile the advancement of legal same-sex marriage in much of Latin America with the stereotype of Latin culture as a bastion of religiosity and machismo?
My people are far too fabulous.
Adios, New York City. I’ll miss you as always. Onwards, now, to Steampunk World’s Fair!
