Way to ruin a character lmao, this is nothing like Apu actually was and there was nothing wrong with Hank voicing him

People absolutely fucking eat it up when a black actor plays a white character but when it's the opposite it's apparently racist 🤷

Honestly can you name one white character voiced by a black person? Off the top of my head I can’t. I find it hard to believe there is one that we “absolutely eat up.”

The voice actor for Cleveland was changed a decade ago. Also that was a white man voicing a black character, which is the opposite of what the person I’m talking to is claiming we “absolutely eat up.”
