From the guests
“It's interesting to see with the last couple movies that have come out how things are changing.” -- Emily Thoreson, Journalism Student at the UNC Hussman School of Journalism and Media
“At the time, as a kid, I didn’t think that much about diversity, you know, I didn’t think much about race. I knew Spiderman looked different than me.” Chase Cofield, Journalism Student at the UNC Hussman School of Journalism and Media
“Oftentimes when we see Asian actors and actresses portrayed they’re really only interacting with other Asian actors and actresses. They’re kind of in their own bubble and they’re not really with people who look different from them.” Yukiko Nakano, Journalism Student at the UNC Hussman School of Journalism and Media
