Race bending a white character is fine, because white people/characters are seen as the DEFAULT for centuries, excluding every other minority in the process. Race bending a minority character is racist, because you're erasing representation.

I don’t see how a black Ariel fights oppression.

Re: The Little Mermaid predictions
That's just... not even remotely true: https://socialsciences.ucla.edu/wp-cont ... -27-18.pdfIf you're talking specifically ALL film roles, supporting or otherwise, they make up 12.5% of those roles. Which is right on the target. (unless you're marketing your film to... you know... the world. In which case...)

That study is regarding movies made now.
