Everyone is white in galaxies far far away, so black jedi knights can't be possible. Disney is going off-canon here

I don't think he's being radical tho. He's probably just saying that he believes Disney chose a black actor to appeal to wider audiences.

Exactly. That and women. It's pretty common knowledge that Star Wars suffers in the african-american and female demographics. The fact that Disney actually went so far as to influence/alter the movie in order to expand it's reach financially sickens me.
