Broadcasting a World of Whiteness

Today in class my teacher presented us with a article about this show called "Girls" but the cast is full of all white women, The article goes on to talk about whether or not the show or television for that matter is diverse enough. I think that the show should have a little bit more diversity with a name like "Girls". When you pick something that's very wide ranged like that you have to back it up and only picked white women to put on a show is NOT backing it up. I think that the main characters, the girls should come from different places i mean throw at least one black girl in there and not just one that have a small conversation with let her have a big part i mean the name of the show is "Girls". The problem for me is not that the cast is all white but its not diverse enough and making people watch television with an all white cast making people of different races seem wrong and that we aren't females or for that matter we aren't what people want to see. Today society everything is about image and i think they really took time to think about what people as a whole want to see on their television. I think as a person i feel a little upset that my race isn't considered good enough to be broad casted.You see a lot of black, latino
and Chinese girls and women on the Disney channel but on a regular television station whats going on is it not permitted, and for me as i feel hurt that i feel like the second race.
