Yes, ignorant people assume everyone from Africa is black.
Wasn't it Bob Costas who referred to some folks as "African Americans" during the Olympics even though they weren't Americans?

Yeah, about that…
This mid-1st Century BCE mural portrays a statue of Venus and the infant Cupid in the Temple of Venus Genitrix, Rome. The statue has been identified as the infamous gilded statue of Cleopatra VII as Venus that Julius Caesar unveiled during the temple's dedication in 46 BCE.
LOL
In all seriousness, what is it with you fricktard’s who gets so adamant about making certain historical figures different races from which they actually were?

GOAT Cleopatra

Then, there's this coin, minted by Mark Antony, toward the end of her life.

You got me. I forgot every Roman emperor had a golden complexion and Lincoln was copper-hued.

It’s not some huge stretch to have her played by a black person.
She was not a black person.
Why intentionally be incorrect in casting historical characters?

In this day and age they may as well cast a Chinese tranny to the role of Cleo. Be about as accurate as a black person anyway.

Jesus was a dark-skinned, liberal Jew.

How do you know that he was dark-skinned?

Hell, white people deserve about 70 more years of white characters being portrayed by non-white actors as punishment for John Wayne as Genghis Khan. When you throw in Mickey Rooney, all bets are off.

Because there are no indications in the New Testament or contemporary sources that say he was albino.
Posted on 4/17/23 at 10:32 am to Galactic Inquisitor
Are there any that say that he was dark-skinned?
Are the only two skin colors albino and dark-skinned?

“If you don’t like the casting, don’t watch the show” – Cleopatra star responds to race controversy
Not sure why there needs to be such a heated discussion in this. This quote says it all.
If you don’t like it, don’t watch it. Move along.

White people? That was one studio in Hollywood trying to make a quick $ off a big time star. And it was never passed on as any sort of a documentary.

Bruh, you really think Genghis Kahn was the only instance of blackface (asianface) in the history of Hollywood?

Because there were so many white cultures running around the Middle East 2000 years ago, amirite?

So the perfect response for doing something we all acknowledge was dumb and stupid is to....double down by increasing the dumb stupidity?

WTF kind of thinking is this? Let's judge past actors by current standards and call them racist to justify doing the same kind of shite nowadays. That is really your premise?
