[N-word Adaptations] Cursed's Kang Arthur of last year: "we can only go further (...) diversity isn’t something that we should pat ourselves on the back. (...) It’s something that the world needs to come to understand… And that’s what we want to see on our screens, especially on Netflix." - Kotaku In Action 2

I have a problem with it because I can't get into the story if the actor is black. I see that nappy hair and I just have to laugh. I can't take them seriously as knights. There are so many other interesting roles that black people can play, but medieval knights just don't work for me, fantasy or not.

They could always be Sagramor.

Sagramore is a Nubian (what's a Nubian) in The Warlord Trilogy but in the legend he's an Eastern Roman / Hun.

There are some real Black Knights tho. One is Feirefiz, Perceval's half brother (half black).
