So Jimmy Stewart was so racist he got Lester from 227 fired from The Jimmy Stewart show

[Sonic Boom of the South]

Just cause he didn't want a Black man on his show


James Stewart controversially had black actor Hal Williams fired from the series on racial grounds. Stewart told NBC producer Hal Kanter that he didn't think it would be appropriate for a black character to be ordering him around on television with a family audience watching.

I can't say I am surprised because he always played his roles like an entitled uppity guy (which he was in real life).
