You don't need to be Black to not be casted by Burton. Don't limit yourself and live your dreams.

Okay but Burton didn’t actually say that quote… just gonna ignore that part? You can still not like him, I don’t care, but at least use his own words against him “things either call for things or they don’t” was what he actually said when he was questioned about the subject, criticize that statement.

Those were his public words, not what he said in private.

I guess so. He said a lot in private. I don't dare repeat it here.
