He sure looked different back in his 30s. Didn't we all lol. The bushy eyebrows are his distinguishing features. His part was relatively small in this film in terms of screen time, so it could be hard to spot him.

Wow the attitudes back then. I'm glad I grew up in a very diverse community. By the time I encountered the racism infection in the US I was immune. We've come a long way. We have a long way to go.

Edit to correct Asner's age from 20s to 30s
