There have been plenty of characters in literature that have changed race when adapted to film, no one ever has any issues with it until James Bond comes up


people had issues with a black annie, for good reason IMO.

Bond is Scottish in the source material. You know how many Scotsmen have played James Bond? 1. They've even had actors who weren't even Brits at all playing 007. Why is that not a problem but a black guy is?
