We must all be allies to support the minorities and amplify their voices and experiences to others in our society.

Or just genuinely be minority blind.
I’m afraid my biggest problem with woke culture is they are looking for differences then jump on the bandwagon.
Sometimes I feel like I was the only person who didn’t process that Meghan is mixed race , it simply didn’t occur to me. I thought more parallels would be drawn that a second son was likely to marry an American actress again and was waiting for the Koo Stark stuff to be dragged up . I was genuinely surprised that the media seemed to think Meghan’s full name was “mixed race Meghan Markell”.

Concur ... lots of bandwagon jumping ... then, like it or not, it’s rammed down our throats ... too many crusaders

I couldn't stand Peter capaldi and haven't taken to the current one ( forgotten her name)

I liked David Tennant and Matt Smith so that sort of character for me

I like the idea of Michael Sheen. Another actor I feel would make a good candidate is Tom Payne who recently played Michael Sheen’s son in Sky series Prodigal Son, and also Jesus in The Walking Dead.

I think Michael Sheen would be better as The Master (as no doubt he will pop up again soon).
