because I felt that was the right thing to do, that it was, and animation has gone that way, not really because of me, I might've contributed with that decision, but,

especially in that voice actor world, there's much more thought put into, well, who should really do this voice?

If we're trying to say anything substantive with this character, perhaps more than as equal to who's voicing it, do we have writers in the room who actually know that point of view?

There were no Indian writers in the room for years on The Simpsons or black writers or that many women, really.
