I don’t watch many shows. What specific shows or movies did Kathleen Kennedy ruin by changing the character’s ethnicity or gender?

No one has sufficiently explained to me why it’s a bad thing that Ariel is black… Like, who the fuck cares?
Ok. I’ll tell you why I think its a bad thing. Because instead of representing an original film taken from a myth or fairy tale from Africa, they still have a black woman representing a really badly executed copy and paste remake from a better film which is based on a fairy tale from Europe? So people can crow about “representation” in this movie all they want, but in the end, European culture is what is actually being represented while African culture is being ignored. Because a shitty remake is safer than showcasing African culture.
Because the burden is on the person making the change to justify why the change is necessary, not on everyone else to justify why not
Otherwise you’re sending the message that white people have no intrinsic value, and they have to continuously prove why we should keep them around, and that’s obviously wrong
