I think they shouldn't change any race, white to black or black to white, but it'd be less objectionable if they actually acted like it didn't matter (and picked the man for the job), as opposed to wanting to make as many characters black as possible.
Nobody gives a shit that Nick Fury was changed to black because it was Samuel L. Jackson.
If it only happened occasionally, and the nonwhites demonstrated merit & talent so the white audience could watch and say "well, I can see why this person won out getting the role irrespective of color", then nobody would have a problem with it.
The only reason its a problem is because clearly inferior people are being chosen - objectively creating an inferior product - purely to force a political agenda on the audience.

How come it never goes the opposite direction? Why didn't they cast Ryan Gosling as T'challa in Black Panther?
the only thing you'll ever get is (((Robert Downey jr))) playing as a white guy playing as a black guy in a (((ben stiller))) movie
And that was in 2008 back when you could still do edgy shit. RDJ's blackface and Cruise's jewface would both be haram in 2023 hollywood.
