Woman Explains to MSNBC Panel Why Star Wars Is, Like, Totally Racist

By James St. James on December 16, 2015 10:38 am

Melissa Harris Perry has been thinking a LOT about Star Wars lately, and has concluded that it’s totally racist – mostly because Darth Vader was voiced by a black guy but played by a white guy.

“The part where he was totally a black guy whose name was basically James Earl Jones…but while he was black he was terrible and bad and awful and used to cut off white men’s hands, and didn’t, you know, actually claim his son, but as soon as he claims his son and goes over to the good he takes off his mask and he’s white.”

Um, OK. Except that Anakin/Vader is and always was a white guy (HeLLOOOOO Hayden Christensen), and as one commenter on The DW pointed out, isn’t it almost more racist to demand that a white guy is voiced by a white guy and black guy by a black guy? Ugh. My head hurts.
