Do u think its ok to have a "Black" girl playing the Little Mermaid ? 🐠 🐟

Her name is Halle Bailey, sister of Chloe Bailey from the tv show Grownish. Now I'm gonna be honest with you people here. As a person of color, I felt like she should have turned this role down. Why ? Because The Little Mermaid just so happens to be, White. Just like Black Lightning, is actually Black. He is a comic book character. But anyway, this is just a good example of politics. That ugly evil thing that is used to divide and conquer people. What do you think ?
Should there be a Black girl playing the Little Mermaid. They could have just made an original version of a mermaid film so that is wouldn't cause so much friction for certain people. Right. You tell me. I'm listening.
Best answer wins. ☺️ 🐟

We have black Santa Claus. Churches with black Jesus. It seems to me we crossed this bridge a long time ago.

@Poppies Jesus was a Middle Eastern Jew. Not really black or white. He was certainly not the blue-eyed Nordic-featured guy we see in many paintings, though.

@Poppies Who is to say that God is not Black. Jesus and God are two different people.
Some of us seem to forget that sometimes. 🙂

@Zonuss who is to say that imaginary mermaids are not black? If it makes some little black girls happy, let them have versions of Ariel, Barbie, whoever, that resemble them.

@Zonuss I believe GOD made all "Man," in HIS Image. That's all "Human Kind," thus, God is Everything.
