I read different into their use of actually, but this is a peril of internet text based discussions.
Make no mistake, I fully agree that Hollywood is sexist and racist. My issue is how quick we swing from "its not ok to hire based on race and gender" to "let's focus on hiring and development based on race and gender". Did one group get better off in the past - absolutely. But where is the line of it being acceptable to be racist and sexist - is it never ok or is it what society is ok with, putting us right back 30 years ago?
