It's a hard question.Spoiler for Hidden:
Ideally yes everyone would be above race and gender and simply not care, but that's not how all the world works. There's still plenty of racism and sexism around. I don't believe in criticising the film industry for it's lack of diversity, but an increase of representation certainly wouldn't be a bad thing.
I agree and mentioned in my post. Also increasing that diversity would have a greater effect than making it out to be a social injustice issue when that isn't exactly the case
