Represent | Steven Universe’s Ian Jones-Quartey On His New Show, O.K. K.O.!

Slate Race and Identity

Aisha Harris talks to Steven Universe’s Ian Jones-Quartey about his new Cartoon Network show, OK K.O.! Let's Be Heroes. Also, we give a slow handclap to Ed Skrein for setting himself apart from other white actors, casted as Asian characters in a major Hollywood film.
