Light skin actors do not get the most roles - Ama K Abebrese takes on Bismark the Joke


Afrocentric actress and Double Cross Co-Producer
Ama K Abebrese on eTV Ghana's TLNCS disagreed
with comedian Bismark the Joke's opinion that light
skin actors got more roles.
“I don’t agree with the notion that if you are not fair
in the industry then you don’t get casted for roles.
If you look at other industries, looking at the world
in general, everyone wants to copy what’s
happening around them.

Lupita Nyong’o is doing great in Hollywood. Viola
Davis is doing great and the Nigerian lady in
Orange is The New Black too is doing very well.
“If you want to think only lights skin people get
roles in this industry; I don’t think that’s true.
There’s enough room for everybody. And my
campaign is about accepting your natural skin color
and not falling for bleaching or toning to look
lighter.”
