It seems to me that in the past decade or even longer, African-American actors were (and still are) superior to their white counterparts.
Actors such as Sydney Poitier, Cicely Tyson, Morgan freeman, Viola Davis, and Octavia Spencer, to name a few.
Through their line readings plus facial expressions and body language, they are capable of expressing a long range of emotions.
In contrast, I've found many white actors just pose, pout, and mumble.
I can't help but wonder if they're more interested in their paychecks than in artistry.
Yes, there are some exceptions, such as Harrison Ford and Robert Downey, Jr., but they are few and far between.
I'm not familiar with Asian or Native American actors, so I can't comment here.
BTW, I'm white.
