Tbh Hollywood presents everybody who’s not white like that a lot of Muslims are presented as terrorists or oppressed. The Aladdin remake got criticised for orientalism because it was mostly Indian/Bollywood culture they were passing off as Arab because real Arab culture is too “modest/uninteresting” for them probably. I also remember people were mad as hell at Disney’s Princess and the frog because they had to add slave/racist undertones to the movie because that’s all they can associate black people with.They depict them as stupid/clowns or criminals.
I wouldn't even say white, but rather western european. Every eastern european is a villain, always.Tbh Hollywood presents everybody who’s not white like that a lot of Muslims are presented as terrorists or oppressed I remember when Aladdin remake got criticised for orientalism it was Indian/Bollywood culture they were passing of as Arab.

Omg this. Jamaicans don't have a one size fits all accent. It changes depending on where you're from like town or country. Black Americans across America don't sound the same, so I don't understand why they cast non Jamaicans or people with no proximity to being Jamaican who more than likely had a white dialect coach. You can hear their ass struggling too, like Taye Diggs in How Stella Got Her Groove Back.I'm Black American woman: hollywood w portrays Black women as aunties/grannys, slaves and single mothers, churchy. "Black" women under 30 are portrayed by biracials.
Men seem to have more diverse rolls. Not all Drugs dealers/ thugs but still a lot of that.
Jamaicas always cast by non Jamaican with terrible Jamaican accents . Jamaicans always dressed from head to toe in red green and yellow and smoke "ganja".
Edit for grammar
Facts! That's also an accurate description when it comes to my parents lol.Strict parents who only want certain professions for their children
