If racists are going to whine about Ariel being portrayed by a Black actress, then they need to explain why they were somehow okay with Queen Latifah playing as Ursula in the live-action play.

Comparing a mainstream movie with a stage play seems very disingenuous. Most people probably have never heard of the Little Mermaid stage play.

The stage play was shown on TV and shared via YouTube, so you can't say not many people were exposed to it online.

It is not anywhere mainstream as feature Disney film. If a lot of racists knew about this tv movie I'm sure we would of heard them complaining about it because the person who played Ariel is part Hawaiian, Chinese, and Puerto Rican.

She had a different skin color, which is enough for racists.

Even racists dare not step to Queen Latifah.

Ask a random person in America to name the newest Broadway play they could think of, and I bet the latest one they could name would be Hamilton (which is from 2015).
