[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is an interesting thread as I recently saw Mary, Queen is Scots. I was a little puzzled by the range of black, Hispanic, Asian, etc. cast members given there were none in 16th century England/Scotland - at least to the best of anyone’s knowledge. For a historical film it felt a bit off. [/quote] While the largest influx started in the late 17th century to the 18th century, there were African and Asian immigrants as early as the 16th century, but maybe not as many as depicted in MQ of S. The depiction in Mary Poppins is quite historically accurate - there were black professionals in the early 20th century. http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/pathways/blackhistory/intro/intro.htm[/quote]
