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. ☺️ 🐟

Yes. Disney's 1989 adapation of Hans Christian Anderson's fairy tale was different in many ways anyway, that his actual tale.The Little Mermaid was not named, the story is overall a lot darker, and it sure doesn't have the same kind of happy ending.

Those who are seemingly outraged about Disney's new version of The Little Mermaid, obviously still have their beloved white, red haired, blue eyed cartoon Ariel.
