Ok that's great and all but what if someone outside of a ethnic group can do a solid performance? As I've already said acting is all about playing someone you're not so I don't see the need for an actor to have the same Scottish-indigenous American-Mexican and Somali heritage of a character.

As I stated above: "Sometimes, people that outside the groups actually do a better match for a specific character."

At least Indonesian generally does not care about matching ethnicity or race.
