Pretty sure that in Tudor England, a Henry VIII that's desperate for an heir isn't going to bed a Moor (let alone someone straight outta Sub-Saharan Africa) just to get that future king.
Forget the fact that black folk were so rare in England at the time, if one showed up he or she would likely be considered to be the literal devil incarante.
Race bending for ahistorical Shakespeare plays I understand, but this a historical drama. There's a stark difference between shoe horning in a character from a distant land and outright propaganda
Started to watch some Netflix program set in 1800s England, 1/2 the cast was Black and Asian.
Nope, can’t do it. Netflix is gone.
I have gone 100% analog.
Thing is, kids watch this stuff and will actually think Britain was always multiracial.
Powerful and evil propaganda to get an entire generation of Brits to accept their demographic replacement by foreigners.

Black people rare in England at the time?
Not even. The first black man didn’t step foot on English soil until the early 1800’s.
I hear they're making a movie about the civil rights movement. Neil Patrick Harris is playing Martin Luther King Jr.
That could work because he’s gay so if you don’t like it, you’re obviously homophobic.
Let's actually do it. Do a Kunta Kinte movie with the whitest actor you can find.
I vote Michael Rappaport because I won’t watch it anyway and he’s a cunt.
Alrighty then.
The Black Egyptian movement thinks we're doing that right now by portraying Jesus Christ as white.
rebel wilson is "harriet tubman."
Wait.....are blacks suddenly offended they don't see themselves represented in history about people with their heads cut off?
Fun fact she's married to a white dude.
Imagine a white guy playing Obama.
Imagine a black guy playing his wife. ;)
This was a minor redpill moment for my mom, a very liberal boomer. She actually cares about history and watches that type of show so she was pissed.
Looking forward to the day we're so woke that we can remake Black Panther with just white people.
If they can get away with this, basically they can get away with anything.
Bro they stole a fucking presidential election.... they can get away with anything.
And Henry VIII will be played by Forrest Whittaker.
YOU CAN'T MAKE THIS SHIT UP! Unless, of course, it's a parody....
Im gonna make a movie called "The Last Nigga on Earth" starring Tom Hanks
Lol blacks want to get rid of whitey. Then what? Get exterminated by the Chinese lol. Too bad
And no one will watch it. Stupid.
Unbelievable
I'd watch Jodie Turner Smith in anything! Buy its ridiculous to cast her in this role. I may watch it for "science" though.
