In 2020, [[Hollywood]] and American entertainment industry in general (including in video games) decided to racially segregate voice-actors and dubbers basing on the skin-color of the characters to voice or dub (yes, including alien and fantastical creatures), with exceptions of non-white voice-actors voicing or dubbing white characters. A [[racist]] practice under the excuse and disguise of "[[anti-racism]]" (that has been called out as disgusting and regressive even in foreign countries famous for voice-acting and dubbing like [[Italy]] and [[Japan]], especially by manga and anime veteran legend and then politician [[Ken Akamatsu (Mangaka/Politician)|Ken Akamatsu]]<ref>https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interest/2020-07-01/ken-akamatsu-comments-on-casting-poc-voice-actors-in-american-cartoons-japanese-anime/.161275</ref>, since voice-acting cannot be defined by physical or ethnic/racial traits), supported even by ''[[The Simpsons]]'' and ''[[Family Guy]]'' creators and showrunners<ref>https://youtu.be/oLU6vH_IGi0?si=5khNOhDowcFBzGdX</ref> who always bragged to be anti-system and politically incorrect. This is something that didn't happen even during the Jim Crow era, in fact, despite the rampant racism in America due to [[Democrats]]' policies (particularly in the Democrat South), Hollywood was not racially segregated, even to voice-actors.
