The upcoming movie "Thor" will have an African American portray the Nordic god Heimdall -- and no one thinks that's odd?

Not to make too big a deal out of it, but have you noticed that European figures are routinely portrayed by Blacks but no white is ever allowed to portray an African, Asian, etc.?

I remember the old kids' show "Wishbone." Wonderful show, and the dog was adorable. Anyway, whenever they would reenact classic novels set in England or Europe there were always Blacks in the cast playing Europeans. And I really thought nothing of it till they did the mandatory "African heritage" episode based on African-American folklore. In flashbacks to Africa the only white who portrayed a character was the dog!

It all goes back to the dialectic. Whites are the antithesis, Blacks the thesis. The antithesis must admit the thesis into every part of its inner life or it is evil. The antithesis must also allow the thesis to maintain a lilly-pure segregated society which no "foreign devil" may defile with his presence--or again, it is evil.

The perfect illustration of all this is a statement by the late Rabbi Me'ir Kahana' (zt"l, Hy"d). He pointed out that in Israel Jews are not allowed to "oppress" Arabs by "defiling" their communities, while Jews are required to let Arabs live anywhere they want to. If a Jew "defiles" an Arab community he is a racist. If he doesn't allow the Arab to "defile" his own community, he is a racist.
