This from the same group that hate Ben Carson, Lt Col. Allen West, Herman Cain while choosing the self described “mutt” Barry the Soetero?

The Rock was also going to play King Kamehameha in a movie, but then he got blasted by activists because he is Samoan, not Hawaiian.

(The movie idea is still going on and my guess is Jason Momoa (”Aquaman”) will end up playing the part if it ever happens since he is Hawaiian.)

“Dwayne Johnson's father is Rocky Johnson, who was a damn good wrestler himself back in the day. He and Tony Atlas were the first Black tag team champs.” Rocky Johnson also tag-teamed with Pat Patterson, a great wrestler also. Johnson married to wrestler Peter Mavila’s daughter, who bore Johnson a son.😎

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson sided with the NFL kneelers and had very negative things to say about Trump! He deserves no praise! Are all of you sleeping?????

Obama isn’t but half Black at the most but nobody complains about him.

Sounds like another follywood loser at the box orifice to me.

If James Bond can be remade into a tranny I don’t see any reason why Dwayne Johnson can’t play John Henry.

[YogicCowboy]

He is less than half black - if his official genealogy is accurate.

...his mother is Samoan. Some think Johnson... is not black enough to play a black man in the movies. One wrote, “John Henry was a very dark skin man & yes that matters.” Yet, John Henry is mythological... Other critics say Dwayne Johnson hasn’t proclaimed his blackness enough to qualify as black.

He may or may not be a nice guy, but his politics are bull**** (see the keyword link) and more generally, he's an entertainment industry nitwit. Thanks Impala64ssa.
