Anne Boleyn 21:29 - May 31 with 2491 viewsYrAlarch

Just seen a trailer for a new TV drama about Anne Boleyn.
I didn't know she was black. I'm somewhat gobsmacked. It seems that history is being re-written in the interests of diversity.
If a drama was made about Mary Seacole and she was played by a white actress, would that be acceptable?

I'm sure it'll keep someone happy but I won't be watching it ,. History altered just to appease the minority , not for me I'm afraid.

Even worse, they're making a new Lassie fil and the lead role has gone to a Wombat. Champion is to be played by a squirrel and Flipper is portrayed by a Hippo. The worlds gone mad I tell ya.

To answer the question, we all know it's not aceptable for a white person to play a black person, not anymore. However, equality hasn't quite stretched to demanding the rules apply equally to everyone yet.

Just my opinion, but WTF do I know anyway?

No Biggie. They've had white guys playing Jesus for years.

Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back.

Surely, any historical drama should be as accurate and authentic as possible? What's the point otherwise. It will just become an elaborate soap opera with nice costumes.I would rather watch eastenders or Holby city.

I'm going to go with them not being white!

Anyway, does it matter any more? What was allowed in the past is not allowed any more. White actors are not allowed to "black up" because it's racist so surely the same rule should apply to everyone, any actor should be the colour of the person they play. Anne Boleyn wasn't black.

Once that can of worms was opened the lid was never going back on.

Just my opinion, but WTF do I know anyway?

It does seem that way, white person bad is all we seem to hear. Even from other white people.
