Trina McGee - best known for her star turn as Angela Moore on 'Boy Meets World'&'Girl Meets World' has come forward with racism she experienced on both sets from cast mates.
* Crew was great/lovely to her
* Was called 'Aunt Gemima', constantly treated dismissively despite being on 60 episodes of television
* Cites the main culprits as Danielle Fishell, Will Fredle and
* Claims that these tensions didn't abate during her guest spot on GMW and that she's been blocked from more income.
Called aunt Jemima on set during hair and make up. Called a bitter bitch when I quietly waited for my scene to finish rehearsing that was being f’ed up over and over due to episode featuring my character. Told “ it was nice of you to join us” like a stranger after 60 episodes

I did my job and I expect my due. At times the tension of the disrespect was extremely stressful. 25 yrs old at the time raising a family and did not deserve to be thinking about this. None of those three colleagues had children. Just cowardly egos and hot diarrhea mouths.

I’m left out because of fear and jealousy. Crew was always great. Talking about three acting colleagues.

One reply was that calling me Aunt Jemima was the same as calling me The Jolly Green Giant. Just a fictional food character. I could care less what people call me until the vibe starts to block coins. This is the difference between prejudice and racism.

They should name themselves. When a colleague says “I don’t want anyone in my scene that is female or around me. “ be bold enough to own up to why you are doing this. You don’t have to be inspected gadget to figure it out. I plan on enjoying the squirm of cowards.
