And she's saying this just now?
The fact that Degrassi has had ethnical diversity in its characters is remarkable though. Ali's family is indian and they've had plenty of storylines, not only her but her parents aswell. They also had Manny (filipina), Riley (greek), Marco (italian) and Zig (russian) and even Chantay, Jimmy and Dave as african americans all major characters at their time.
This is just plain ********.
