For playing a Ethiopian Muslim refugee


Some of the tweets in reply to this:

In this day and age, people just love to get their knickers in a twist, and cry and moan, about everything.

I feel incredibly sorry for Dakota. Poor girl, was getting tonnes of hate.....for playing a character from a novel:

 

[saredochani10]

"The character is a white British woman who was abandoned by her parents in a Moroccan village, where the spiritual teachings of a Sufi (a Muslim ascetic) master provide her with the discipline to find acceptance in the Ethiopian city where she later settles" source

Yeah it looks like fake outrage.

Outrage culture only stems from the simmering resentment against white racism from the past. Its just human nature.

Humanity is effed up, we all know this.

I actually don't mind her playing a Xabashi Muslim. She looks very becoming in her impoverished gabarsar, with her blue eyes sticking out.


However.


I just finished watching HBO Mary, Queen of Scots! Queen Elizabeth the I has a black man Ambassador going between her & Cousin, Mary. It ruined my Middle age Anglo-escape fantasy to see a black man with his hard hair, combed, with a line separated hard to show some sort of a distinguished face. That, I take Umbridge with. U think they would have let a black man with such power in middle ages England? I think black people arrived in England post 1690s

"Has she ever driven an Uber? "

hmmm, so only muslims driver ubers?

 

[Waaqo of Punt]

Some of the tweets are so flawed in logic. Human stupidity. How can u blame someone for playing a character from a novel? Baboons.

no im just attacking the hypocrisy of hollywood movies however there is a shift in which more black people are being uplifted and white people are seen as villians ie Get Out

People always find something to be triggered about, it’s acting they don’t have to go find someone that lived that life to portray it on screen.

 

[Abdurahman_somali]

So when hollywood needs a Somali actor, they come with Barkhad Abdi and when they need an Ethopian actress they come with a cute white lady ?

 

[VixR]

I’ve noticed people land on different sides of this depending on the story, despite the fact that it’s the same concept.

The same people who defend Dakota in this unusual role, make fun of the Black Disney princess, or how movies are starting to incorporate “token” minority roles.

 

[World]

SJWs are so annoying, they need to leave that poor woman alone.

 

[Nilotufian]

Why are they describing her as an “White Ethiopian Muslim refugee” then? When in fact the character is an abandoned Brit in Africa. Are they saying Brits can’t be refugees? Kmt.

 

[Okoj]

Notice how nobody gives a shit a bantu man is playing a role in this too.

These 'activist' types are utter morons.
