Black people who oppose a black Ariel? I wonder what generation they're from. Not mine!
I remember The Wiz, the black version of the Wizard of Oz. I remember when the late Whitney Houston co-produced Cinderella and it was a cast of color. I remember Jamie Foxx who was the old rich guy who adopted little orphan Annie. I could go on ... but the main thing is I don't remember a bunch brew ha ha about them.
Now Ariel is black and black people are complaining. WHY? The entertainment business is about making money. It's always been about making money. And what "color" is money? Nobody cares. Just as long as you can take it to the bank!
