Well this explains why he was FINALLY given a solo book this summer to ZERO promotion (I found out by accident while looking for another book).
“Stranger Things” star Caleb McLaughlin is opening up about racism he said he experienced from some of the show’s fans.
“At my first Comic Con, some people didn’t stand in my line because I was Black,” McLaughlin said in a video filmed by an audience member. “Some people told me, like, ‘Oh, I didn’t want to be in your line because you were mean to Eleven. Even now, some people don’t support me because I’m Black, you know?”
When he would question why fans saw him as the least favorite character on the show, his parents pointed out the “sad reality” of the situation and said it was because he was the “Black child on the show.”
