I'm not up on my Buffy fandom, but when Ben Francisco refers to "the rainbow of diversity it's sometimes made out to be", are there really people who make it out to be a rainbow of diversity? There were a handful of black characters, and there were Asians in...um.
It's been a while since I've really watched, but when I consider the fact that, stop me if I'm wrong, every one of the credited characters in all seven seasons is white, and that the IMDb credits, which are sorted by number of appearances, the first 23 people are all white (the 24th being the seventh-season principal)...well, it makes me impressed that you managed as many Latino/as as you did. Even if you had to accept Kennedy as being among them, instead of pretending she never existed.
