If the day comes when the audience is required to be "People-of-Color Only", or if whites are taunted when they go to these places, and the next step is "No Whites Allowed" restaurants, buses, and water fountains, there will be problems.

The Ancient One was Tibetan in the comics, but Marvel Movies can’t afford to piss of China. So we get a British woman instead.

I am planning a Malcom X show with a casting call excluding minorities. The songs will be a mesh of country-western and show tunes.

Let's start at the very beginning, a very good place to start...

How about an all-black Show Boat, where the singer is part-white and is kicked off the boat?

I think that’s a reasoned argument. Thanks.

How about roots with an all white cast in black face?

It’s the lifestyles of the perpetually aggrieved and entitled.

They urge us to be more diverse. But when we try to keep them happy, they accuse us of “cultural appropriation”.
There’s no pleasing those loons.
I’ve decided the best thing is to just ignore them and forge ahead with righting the country, with Trump leading the way.

...Ok lets do a remake of “Shake Zulu” but with an all Asian cast....

Zulu, the movie, with Michael Caine as the white Ne’er do well. Lots of Victoria Crosses awarded.

It's SHAKA and the film was done in RSA BY people there, so that won't ever happen.

But I do get your drift.

They gave FREE tickets to ONLY "minority" school kids, who now believe that the FFs were all black, Puerto Ricans, and their wives mulattoes or Asian. So this is NOT really about what you claim it to be. You couldn't be more WRONG if you tried! They appropriated MY culture and rivised history for the stupids.

Stop being so accepting of cultural corruption!

Go back even farther and lets have a revival of SHUFFLE ALONG, with and ALL WHITE CAST and a WHITE guy portraying Eubie Blake to come out and deliver a speech at the end.

And this makes a LOT of sense right now, because they have revived that musical, a short while ago and the guy playing Eubie Blake, was that POS......BRANDON VICTOR DIXON!

Personally, I don’t mind having minorities playing traditional “white” roles or white historical characters. Sometimes it adds an interesting twist on a story. But, as always, the material has to be good and original. Simply putting a black guy in a white role with bad writing isn’t going to make the story better.

If anyone could afford to piss of China, Marvel can. You take out the $100 million Dr. Strange earned in China and it still earned $479 million to date on a $165 million production budget.
