Social justice warriors today would go ape $#!+ over David Carradine playing Qui Chang Caine.

Or how about Burt Reynolds playing a Native American:

Burt at least reputedly has some Cherokee ancestry, and shows it more than most of us. Seven or eight generations of dilution after your ancestor crossed the Cumberland Gap and found a wife doesn’t leave much visible trace.

Qui Chang Caine was not of full Chinese heritage. One of his parents was Caucasian. Which is why Carradine was cast. He was able to affect that look.
But, you're right. All the usual suspects today would go @p3sh!t.

Social justice warriors today would go ape $#!+ over David Carradine playing Qui Chang Caine. I believe the role was originally written for Bruce Lee, due to his "Kato" role in "The Green Hornet."
