Casting a non-White as Snow White is deliberate ritual humiliation one notch above all the other erasures from European mythology-inspired current adaptations.
"Everything will be taken from you and you will be erased from history like you never existed. You will be made extinct for the Greater Good." is the message.
well, its disney version of original tale anyways aka raping euro mythology stories from start :D
such as, kiss dont revive snow-white, and there is no happy end : "And when she saw her she knew her for Snow-white, and could not stir from the place for anger and terror. For they had ready red-hot iron shoes, in which she had to dance until she fell down dead.
These are Brothers Grimm tales anyway, and english word grim comes for grimm, as their stories were grim
German strength comes across as brutality in modern America. The propaganda of the early 19'th century did its work. At one point, German was the second most spoken language, and American propaganda created a disgust of Germany during the first world war.

One point of evidence: Literal nobody is asking for a "Snow White" remake in the first place. I know Disney has been on a live action kick, but of all the ones they choose...
Yes, and guess what? Disney didn't invent that name, the "fairy tale" existed centuries before he did. And it dates from a time when NOBLEMEN and women were noted for their VERY PALE, WHITE skin that differentiated themselves from the commoners, who spent most of their time working outside, getting their skin tanned.
If you listen to stuff like Steeleye Span, those old songs are full of references to things like that.

The word "grim" is Old English and means "fierce".
Isengrim - "fierce iron".
The meaning seems to have slightly shifted from there to come to mean serious/depressing.

It is a happy end, just of an old timey sort and not for her (the queen).
It's alike Hansel and Gretel just fucking burn their witch, because Hansel was an ancestor of Hans ze Flammenwerfer Soldat.
