    If African folklore had a mythical character played by a white actor wouldn’t they also be criticised?

      1. The Little Mermaid has changed so much since Hans Christian Anderson it cannot really be considered Danish anymore.

      2. Yes they would and rightfully so. I dislike the casting of the movie, it just so happens the movie was bad enough on its own.
