Yes, there are too many Black actors in Hollywood movies. You can barely find any roles for white actors these days. I fondly recall roles where white actors could do their jobs, like Mickey Rooney in Breakfast at Tiffany's.
It’s funny how Latino, Arab, Asian, Greek, actors are suddenly “white” when convenient.
Ok where is all this black washing of Asian, arab, latino, etc figures? If anything they get white washed as much as black figures do or are reduced to stereotypes with zero depth.
Only thing that comes to mind is Jada Pinkett's shitty Netflix series that no one watched
Sounds like you’re being emotional and treating racism like a competition. Can’t really have a reasonable conversation with you if that’s the case
Or you could just give me examples of famous figures of the ethnicities you mentioned being represented as black. I've yet to see Miyamoto Musashi, Santa Ana, Buddha, Alexander the Great, or Saladin played by Morgan Freeman or Idris Elba
