Alison Brie is the latest actor to apologize for portraying a person of color on a TV show or film.

In an Instagram post over the weekend, the Glow star said she wished that she didnt voice the character of Diane Nguyen, a Vietnamese American character in the Netflix animated series BoJack Horseman.

I now understand that people of color should always voice people of color. We missed a great opportunity to represent the Vietnamese-American community accurately and respectfully, and for that I am truly sorry, wrote Brie, who added that she applauds other actors who previously stepped down from voicing people of color in animated shows.

The 37-year-old says she learned a lot from them.
