    How is that true in a way different from other industries?

    It is the same in other industries, the dominant race always has better employment opportunities. It’s not really specific to voice acting.

    At least in VA we are able to actually force companies to hire minorities.

      I believe they are asking why should it matter the VA race but not the race of the person who wrote the character, or designed the character, or animated the character.

        The only reason it’s possible in voice acting is because actors have unions. I’d see nothing wrong with other labor unions demanding that studios hire minorities to write, design, and animate too

        We should be expanding the standard, not tearing it down.
