I hear ya with the woke or culturally inclusive approach to  
reboots.  Why isn't it equally fair to have a white person play  
the part of an original indigenous character in an indigenous  
story, as it is when they are placing black characters in the  
roles of orignal stories that were clearly written and invented  
with white people in mind?

The new Fantasy Island has the niece of the original Roarke. He
was Mexican.  The new Roarke is an actress with a Puerto Rican
background - close enough! LOL
