Asians Going Crazy Over Steven Yeun’s Latest Magazine Cover Reveals a Sad Reality
I’m over it. I’m tired of begging for representation from these racist egg heads. Am I glad that Steven Yeun is on the cover of Entertainment Weekly? Fook yea! But I’m not about to act like this magazine cover and Scarlet Johannsson’s Ghost in the Shell don’t exist in the same universe at the same damn time.
Marvel’s latest film, Doctor Strange, has a whitewashed Tilda Swinton character; I think the last thing us Asian-Americans should do is dance around and act like progress has been made. Don’t lose focus. Keep looking forward, and continue to hold these egghead publications responsible.
We shouldn’t stop until POC faces are the FACE of Entertainment Weekly.
I’m so damn proud of you, Steven Yeun. Keep smashing through those walls, Kuya.”
Looks like we still have a long way to go…
