I’m posting this after Bob’s panel cause I wanted the time to properly type this out. Someone did ask him about the white washing. It was more a general question about the cast. He was the one to bring up the issue that people have been doubting his background online. He said he never thought of it as an issue until recently and that the Internet turned this into something he had considered a non issue. He is proud being part of such a diverse cast with a female lead, a lot if females characters, POCs, and LGBQTAs. He is glad to be one of them. Mind you he said this all do sadly I thought he might cry. He was obviously very hurt by being white washed.

So for everyone out there doing so. He is a PoC man. He is very proud of this. And don’t you dare try and take that away.
