yeah same old same old, it's only a problem if white people do something. reminds me of the fuss over the Ghost in the Shell movie that was accused of whitewashing, and yet there is barely a franchise going right now made in Europe or America that has white characters changed to black characters (normally white men traded out for black men)

what is funny is that if you looked at inventions, art, tv & movies, sports, food etc around the world and what is popular, if the same rules were applied to all then white people would probably culturally 'appropriate' the least

Totally different situation.  Blacks in America were stripped of their original culture and basically forced to adopt white culture as their own.  So you can't complain now that a lot of black actors are playing white roles.  

white people shouldn't have to give up things they have created to other people because of things that have happened in the past. if you want more black characters, make some instead of demanding that the next James Bond, next Superman,, next Batman and every other character should be black. that is surely preferable to black people anyway. i mean they even have historical dramas now where white famous people are played by black actors, it's ludicrous
