Disney is doing a live action remake of The Little Mermaid, and yesterday announced that the mermaid would be played by Halle Bailey, a black actress and singer. Good for Disney.
And then the bigots came out – read the article.
Is there any reason why a fairy-tale fictional mermaid has to be of one race or another?
