But I don't think we should act like the poc should be happy and satisfied with the ones we got. tbh the only poc that had any relevancy was mulan and the only reason she faded away was because she sent lesbian vibes to people. to me, it isn't a factor of more white roles, people trying to find flaws, and it's certainly not lack of poc actors. The writers don't want to, it's that simply. As for the fates of the already established poc, the reason they're given lesser roles was beceause they aren't made to do anything. If the writers really wanted a good poc character and arc they have the movies and fairytales to do it. I really think they are forced to have poc by the powers that be at abc. As a poc, I would rather the writers not have any poc on the show. Mulan, didn't send "lesbian vibes", she is a lesbian, as confirmed by her actress and Adam and Eddy. At any rate, she is probably going to be back in season 5. I also think we will see characters like Rapunzel, Lancelot, and Jafar (from the spinoff) back at some point, alongside new POC's with the appropriate stories, so it makes sense.
