Yet when Hollywood decides to make a film adaptation of Ghost in the Shell, they decide to cast a white woman as Motoko Kusanagi.

Why is it with all these calls for diversity it's always "blacks are under-represented" and "we need more white women" and "there aren't enough Latinos" but no one is pushing for more Asian women in films? Aren't they a minority too?
