i had black-tor (black-actor) friends in LA and they had limited roles and had to grind. but, now i see a trend on youtube where niche gaps are being filled (and have millions of subscribers)...for instance, some of the top vloggers are superwoman (sikh), fouseytube (arab), adam saleh (muslim), KSI & comedyshortsgamer (nigerian/black), etc...
this shows that there is a huge market and huge demand for these groups, but hollywood will never invest. this is why youtube is so great and probably a factor why internet media is creeping up on mainstream TV...because there are so many fans that dont connect to mainstream media stars.
its nice to see that it doesnt take a huge network to make a name for yourself in the entertainment industry as long as you have a great idea - it doesnt matter who you are but how you execute.
