I’m not sure it’s a meme yet…right now it might be more of an obscure reference? Seems like people don’t recognize the photo, and out of context it isn’t obvious what it should add to the text. I am curious about the context, though…like…maybe this will become a meme and we’ll start seeing it a lot? What’s the deal with the picture? Are they celebrities?
This is a common problem when studios want a seasoned non-white actor: they find out they haven’t seasoned any. If you fail to cast minority talent in small roles through the years, you end up with only white actors with the chops for big roles.
