But at the time I had no idea you'd posted. Begining a responce and finishing it after dinner before going off to check out something else isn't the time when I'm most aware.

It's because I'm white isn't it?

That still doesn't have anything to do with Donatello as a mutant turtle. Apparently, the friend's logic is that the same logic works in reverse: that the smart character in a cartoon must be black. Which is the most ridiculous thing I've heard in quite some time.

Has any of the Turtles EVER been voiced by someone of black heritage? I know most have been Caucasian, and Leonardo was voiced by an actor of Japanese descent in the movies....

Frank Frankson/ John Campbell could possibly be black, but I doubt it.

when i think of stereotypes for someone like don, i think of either a geeky asian dude, or a geeky white dude...somehow black just isn't it. it's not a typical stereotype. but let's be honest here and go what we can see plain as day, he's a geeky green dude...tchyea?

hmmm...


Maybe Raph's Native American

And Leo's an Inuit

And Mike's got an Asian parent and a Native American parent.

And Don's got an Inuit parent and a Native American parent.

yeah...that's it, see. The bandanas are Splinter's way of telling the ancestry of each of them....yeah...

I did think that Donnie's VA from the second movie sounded a little black, but if any turtle is black it's...

if the turtles were human, their ethnicities would be the following.

Raphael = italian
Leonardo = asian (he seems more japanese than anything)
Michelangelo = caucasian (californian)
Donatello = black?

Raph? Italian? Na. He'd be AUSTRALIAN!! Only without the accent As for the skin color thing...

They are turtles.

They must be pink.

"Hey, you're black, right?"

""Here we go."

"I hate that stereotype that all black people yell at movie screens. You know? Like, you go see some horror flick, and you be yelling, like, "Don't go in there, girl, he behind the doh'!" You know? It's like...it's offensive."

"You wish were allowed to yell at the screen, don't you?"

"Why does she go in there!? I mean, he's behind the doh'!"

Woah ... I guess this thread is a joke? But as far as the poll goes, I don't know why an automatic option would be that he's white, if he's not black or "green." If the Turtles had a race, I would presume it was ... Japanese-American?
