Elephant in the room

When watching local television one can’t help but wonder why most programs nowadays do not have a fair representation of color and culture amongst actors and actresses.
Why is this? With no disrespect or racial connotation on this topic, it still keeps me wondering why this is the case.
Watching local soapies, you are able to distinctively notice that there are predominantly black and colored actors on TV. Those few that have made it to the TV are brilliant at what they do but am I the only one that notices this imbalance? I believe that local television should be a proper reflection of all races in South Africa, and the fact that we have 11 official languages just emphasizes the fact that it is that much more important….
If you have taken offence to this, you have definitely read this incorrectly.
