I never understood this cheap and tacky criticism. It’s just right-wing rhetoric to clown on “snow flakes” and “progressives.” Literally since the existence of cinema, white people have played POC characters. And no one ever batted an eye until POC validly criticize how it’s dehumanizing and racist to do such castings.
With the whole black people playing white people roles, what you’re big mad bc a talented and beautiful woman of color is playing the little mermaid.? The little Mermaid was a magical and mystical fictional character!? It’s so bizarre and weird
