Esmeralda was a Spanish Gypsy, not a black American.

How many white people would be cast in a remake of Roots? :-P Quite a few... as slave traders and slave owners. Perhaps a couple as members of the Underground.

This nonsense is going on all over the place.
I watch ID network,about TRUE crime.
In one episode they cast the father of the murder victim as black———and I know for a fact that he is white.
I’ll be waiting anxiously for a bio of MLK with a white actor playing the lead./s

A more intelligent action would be to cancel the entire school system that has led us to this kind of absurd fanaticism...

Yet it was ok for the dude who made the play “Hamilton” to insist on minority members playing the parts of historic people who were actually white.

Maybe the white actress was a better actress than the black one??? Oh wait, that doesn’t fit the SJW narrative...............

Casting problems for “The Hunchback Of Notre Dame”? Interesting.
In elementary school I was in “Little Black Sambo”, and we had no black children in school. Talk about casting problems! I don’t recall who had the starring role, but I was a pancake.

“STOP the racist and openly stated policy of ‘color blind’”
So their definition of “racist” is 180 degrees opposite the actual definition. If you’re not a racist, you’re a “racist”.

I will never see Hamilton, after reading that they advertised for ‘minority actors only’ when they were recasting in NYC.

I’m not surprised about the typo in the story; how could we expect Kimberly to know how to spell “quit” when she can’t even spell her own name.
