Not sure where you got Moana as a white Nortic woman. Moana in the cartoon was voiced by Auliʻi Cravalho, who is not Nordic. She is of Chinese, Native Hawaiian, Puerto Rican, Portuguese, and Irish descent.
Moana is about a Polynesian girl. It takes place in Polynesia. Polynesia is in the South Pacific.
Moana is played by Catherine Laga’ala in the live action version. Catherine is of Polynesian descent.

You cannot be this dense.
I literally was arguing from comparing opposites.
Hollywierd race swaps stories that are culturally anchored in white people, i.e. Europe ancestry with non-white people.
Moana is culturally not white, so my point was why is Hollywierd not replacing her with a white person.
You, by trying to point out it only makes sense to use a Polynesian girl to play a Polynesian literally makes my point for using culturally accurate actors in stories culturally relevant. I agree she should be Polynesian, just like Snow White needs to be white European and The Little Mermaid needed to be Dutch-white.
Are you really this obtuse?
The Illiad centers on a Greek woman. It takes place in Greece. Greece is in Europe.
Get it?
