[quote=Anonymous]when it comes to acting and fiction, I don't think you can use history as a way to shut people of color out of roles. I'm curious how many of these people who just can't get past the historical "inaccuracy" balked at a straight cisgender man playing a trans person on transparent. Or Jared Leto in Dallas Buyers Club. Or Emma Stone playing that Hawaiian character in that movie. Or Tom Cruise as the last samurai. Or Mackenzie Davis playing a Korean character in The Martian. But all of these are fine right because not history? Whatever. We get history from documentaries and textbooks and lots of other places. It is absolutely racist to say that a film can't take creative license to cast a black or another person of color because it takes you out of the moment. It is art. Get comfortable with their own discomfort because yea[/quote]
