Reply to comment by Juub1990 in TIL about Anna May Wong, the first Chinese-American film star. Her career began in silent movies era and continued to her death. One of the first to adopt the flapper style of the 20s, she was voted “world’s best dressed woman” in 1934. She will be featured in the American Women quarter series. by ActuallyCausal

I mean the representation isn't that far off 6.5% of roles while being 7.2% of the general population. Hispanics are the real ones getting shafted in film roles (only 5.7% of roles vs 19% of the general population)

Before crazy rich Asians, Hollywood was still straight up white washing and yellow facing Asians and Asian stories.
