Honestly, in this day and age Black characters are on the whole way more interesting than their cookie cutter white inspirations anyway, its almost impossible for them not to be .

Blue Marvel > Superman any day of the week.

"Like fam your whole evolutionary chart is based on getting as much sun as possible. How is anyone on that planet pale ?"

And I've never understood this, its one of the many reasons Superman sucks. I won't even get started on the S and it being hope or some garbage in Kryptonian language blah blah blah. They actually paid a grown ass man to come up with that bullshyt

Exactly, I never said it didnt happen that way either. Just saying you wouldnt have to suspend belief for the mixed actor to be Kal El's grandfather.

The one-drop rule is a social and legal principle of racial classification that was historically prominent in the United States in the 20th century. It asserted that any person with even one ancestor of black ancestry is considered black

You should have read deeper than the first line of that Wikipedia article.

She doesn’t look full black to me at all. And by your own logic, if she has a baby by a white dude then the baby will pretty much be white - which it will. Idk why you want to claim everyone you can as black.

So looking at this picture you can tell that Doja Cat got a white mom and a black dad?

i feel both sides on this. Black actors struggle enough finding work. you can't limit their roles just because you want a white actor. If they are good for the part they deserve a chance to do the role.

at the same time though, there are plenty of original black characters that get zero shine or exposure. instead of race bending to be inclusive, why not be inclusive creatively and make a project about these black characters? That means not only do you get a black star, but more black side characters and maybe black writers too. Real inclusivity instead of tokenism.

I mean there is literally already a black superman why make another clone?

Didn’t CACs have a fit when Idris Elba was in Thor playing a “mythical” god?

Let these clowns have their white heroes. Aliens and shyt is believable but homeboys in space is where they draw the line.

Don't give a shyt about actors tbh.

There are much bigger issues than a bunch of sodomites and child molesters producing filth in Hollywood.

Yes, she looks half white. Matter fact, make her a little paler and she could pass for Angelina Jolie’s sister. And if she didn’t have the lips then she would straight up look Mediterranean white.

Using his logic, Paula Patton’s son can’t play superman because he’s 1/4 black.

Dude that's literally the definition of the one drop rule. You sound like a white person who's mad about black people having dominant genes over white people. It's facts. White supremacists made up the one drop rule because black genes are superior to white genes scientifically. White supremacists came up with this rule because so many millions of white women was having sex and kids with black men and the kids came out looking completely black. The white supremacists had to come up with something to stop so many white women from having sex and kids with black men to stop that from happening which they could never do and white women having sex and kids with black men increased even more along with white women/black men marriages

Dude stop it. Nobody in the world would look at Doja Cat and say "Damn she looks mixed I bet she has a white mom and a black dad". You sound ridiculous right now. Doja Cat looks fully black just like a regular light skin woman.

Could you look at Russell Wilson and tell he's biracial?
