If the roles are reduced to a bunch of terrorist nonsense than let non-Somalis have at it.
exactly. this not the time to fight for representation. when a non-somali portrays a somali in a positive role, then we can complain.
i would've much rather a Nigerian dude played barkhads role in captain Philips. Now somali guys are synonymous with piracy and being ugly:manny:

In FAMILY MOTEL(2007) a Somali refugee and her teenage daughters, confront the unexpected when they are evicted from their apartment for arrears in rent. The film follows their subsequent move to a beaten down motel for the homeless on the “other side” of town.


 
I wanted to make a thread dedicated to documenting how often we Somalis are mentioned in various forms of media, and how we are portrayed. Now obviously there's going to be more bad than good, but I think it's best to keep track of this stuff to stay on top of things, if that makes sense. I encourage everyone to contribute. Please refrain from posting things from the news.

So first off, the obvious ones.

She was portrayed as being in the wrong or at the very least weird for saying all that. She's introduced by stealing some stuff from the store
