why get a non-black girl to wear bronzer makeup when you can get black girl (letitia) who's already capable of doing the role

This is stupid.

Not every person in Africa, paritcularly sub-saharan Africa, is dark as night and due to colonialism there are mixed people around or people with lighter complexions.
Below is probably one of the most famous Ghanian actors

The only people who would care or make a fuss are a few twitter nuts and people who are unhappy about EVERYTHING. Ignore them and get the paper and do the job. Its not that serious.
It's not that serious... TO YOU. She's the one who would have to deal with whatever backlash there was. :yeshrug:

I mean, it's not like we'd be above having Roger Guevener Smith playing Shaka Zulu instead of Henry Cele. That would most definitely be some "Nu-Black" shyt.

I'm saying Africans are diverse. This concept that all africans look west african and the only variety in africa coming from colonialism is flaw.

@charmander is almost 100% african and looks more mixed than Amandla

Same for me even tho I'm dark I don't have west african features but im not mixed

Women of The Coli.. Where them pictures at Vol 2

Be-careful simps...I mean brehs

Dude even said he got his green eyes and lightskin from his half Italian mother. :beli:

People are saying light skin isn't found in Africa. He is light skin and also has a looser hair texture. He didn't get it from Italian grandparents either.

Horners are at least 50% Eurasian, some are as high as 70%, so the mix race still applies.

I can respect following the story that would make it impossible for Wakanda to have non-dark skin folks. However you have some folks in this thread ignoring that some of the largest racial genetic diversity exists in African and have folks of multiple shades in various countries .

I also didn't mean to imply it was only due to colonialism btw.

That's false :mjlol:
And down right stupid. Horners are indigenous Africans genetically.

But i dont wanna turn this into a long winded debate on the admixture of horners, cause I simply don't wanna waste that much time. So let's agree to disagree

Berbers can be black and infact most are lol. Berber and arab are not races. They're similar to hispanics. It's a culture.

In Sudan a lot of black Africans claim to be arab
