Netflix pulls Chris Lilley programs for portrayal of non-white characcters

Netflix will remove four programs presented by Australian comedian Chris Lilley for his portrayal of non-white characters. The streaming platform removed Summer Heights High, We Can be Heroes, Jonah from Tonga and Angry Boys, in which Lilley plays an African-American rapper, a Tongan-Australian student and several Asian characters. The decision comes a day after the BBC in the UK removed Little Britain from its services and HBO Max removed 1939 film classic Gone With the Wind. Image: AP
