I do recognise the hypocrisy and I don't wholeheartedly agree with BLM and its Marxist underpinnings.
Personally I think the real losers here are the Asians, and by that I include Pakistanis, Indians, Mongols, Chinese etc, as they are the truly under-represented class. Watch ITV adverts and do a count of ethnicity then compare that to head of the population.
Perhaps the next James Bond should be played by Sanjeev Bhaskar?

Quote: | Any ethnicity organised job creation is racism and going to cause more racism. |
That can be argued two ways - the way you put it makes sense, but so does the argument that people who are different from the white Anglo-Saxon norm should be given a chance if they are equally as suited for the role as the honkey. Obviously this argument falls down when casting a black woman to play a white queen, but one could equally argue that casting a southerner to play a northerner, or a Scot to play James Bond is wrong. It only becomes a racist thing if someone wants it to be.
Lennie Henry as Hitler in a remake of Downfall perhaps? ____________________ Now - Speed Triple, old ratty GS550, GSXR750M

I don't see why this stuff causes people so much confusion. Fleming wrote James Bond as he wrote him. If you don't like that, or want to change it, don't call it James Bond, call it something else.
If you're going to do something and call it historical, well, how about trying to make it historically accurate?
Unless of course you have an agenda, and it's not really anything to do with art, but just politics. But we see where that goes. Politics masquerading as art quickly gets the cold shoulder from the majority, as does politics in sport and many other things. ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

Again, I agree. If the actor is to be a woman then it should be 'Jane Bond' or something like that. If however the actor is to be male then he should called 'James'.
I'm not sure how far the argument of historical accuracy can be taken, particularly given Hollywood's need to demonstrate America's greatness at the expense of the truth in order to secure funding and the US audience.
Politics masquerading as art will always get the cold shoulder from the public if the public realise it is happening and disagree with what it is presented with. Dr Geobbels was the master of that black art, but he had the advantage of a receptive audience whereas BLM and the woke do not. ____________________ Now - Speed Triple, old ratty GS550, GSXR750M

Quite possibly so. I don't hear the outcry from 'outraged of Basildon' or whoever about that though. I wonder why not? Perhaps 'outraged of Basildon' man secretly likes a brown man in a frock and makeup? ____________________ Now - Speed Triple, old ratty GS550, GSXR750M
