Sesame Street 'letting go' three main characters, must have missed the diversity memo

Nooooooo! Why Sesame Street?!

Bob, Gordon and Luis are the show’s oldest cast members … they’ve been around for a long time, and now just like that, they’re done.

#SesameStreet was the most integrated neighborhood in many US kids' childhoods. Now they've fired most of the PoC. https://t.co/f5T4lOrDPD

Oh yeah, and both Gordon and Luis would be considered “POC.”

We’re sad too, Bird.

How do you fire Gordon? Sesame Street cuts older characters. https://t.co/4tbQEHF4zZ

Devastating news from Sesame Street. I guess this is better than Mr. Hooper's exit from the show. https://t.co/NTGf1uXKva
