It's fiction.

So what?

So whatever people would do in real life does not matter.

That isn't the point. The point is, if JUST ONE character (say... Forest Whitaker's character for example. Support, not lead, like Heimdall), who should have been black, was white in Black Panther, there would have been something of an uproar.

The point is, why is it OK to change white characters to other race/ethnic groups, and any outcry of being true to the source is seen as racism, but changing a non-white character to white would almost certainly create outcry?

@ksoma that isn't for anyone to change but the author.
