    I read this
    To summarize for anyone who didn't read it or know about it.
    After the new disney little mermaid news, another peculiar piece of news is 'Disney facing backlash for not casting African American for Mulan in 2020 remake'
    And as the title says, some people are angry because the actor of 'Mulan' shouldn't be a Chinese woman but an African American or another person of color :facepalm:

    Please tell me that is a satire website. If not, it's truly retarded. Just because they did something once doesn't entitle you to it again.

    ..... Asians are fighting really hard to get solid screen time. It’s a struggle for all non-caucasians in the American film industry. In fact, one could even argue that the second most popular casting by perceived race *is* African American.

    In their attempt to prevent racism, they are instead promoting it. There is a line, and they flipped across it like a proud gymanist.

    If it's Pocahontas it can be african American

    Meanwhile, Resident Evil 5 had too many black zombies, in Africa, so they had to be replaced. :blobsick:
