The Simpsons' No Longer Casting White Actors
On Friday, June 26, producers of the longest-running primetime TV show The Simpsons announced they will no longer have white actors voicing non-white characters. This decision came mere hours after Mike Henry, the voice of Cleveland Brown on the hit-animated comedy Family Guy announced he had stepped down from playing the character.

In 2017, the Indian-American comedian Hari Kondabolu created a documentary called The Problem with Apu and chastised The Simpsons for casting a white actor to play a South Asian role. It showed how South Asians felt about growing up and having Apu as their only source of representation on television.
