BEETHOVEN ?
To: MarvinStinson
That’s stupid. Now watch how many of those kids grow up believing that Beethoven was literally a black man.
To: MarvinStinson
I've heard it before that Beethoven may have been black, but with deadlocks? Not buying it,

It’s actually kind of insulting and condescending. There are plenty of REAL black musicians and composers they could honor on other occasions, but they choose to falsify history for exactly WHAT purpose?

That’s stupid. Now watch how many of those kids grow up believing that Beethoven was literally a black man. Propaganda works. The Austrians convinced most of us Americans that Beethoven was an Austrian and Hitler was a German. -Tom

At what point do you say: “Enough of this pretend crap. Beethoven wasn’t black and no matter how woke you want to be, that’s just pure bullshit.”

So would portraying Hitler as a black or Asian be considered “art” as well?

".... plenty of REAL black musicians and composers ..."Good point.
Nobody would object to portraying Louie Armstrong or MLK Jr as whites, I assume?

"David Copperfield was also cast with British-Indian actor Dev Patel..."I love it; someone should return the favor by making a new biopic of Gandhi with an Arnold Schwarzenegger look-alike (and sound-alike) in the leading role.

PBS did this absurd "documentary" on the history of Rock and Roll.
Evidently all, not even just much or most, Rock and Roll music was created by Blacks. Even punk rock.
So I guess it's no surprise that Beethoven was also of African American (or maybe Afro-Germanic?) ancestry.
