Ariel shouldn't be black anyway. If mermaids live deep in the ocean, they should have pale skin due to lack of sunlight.
Yes, because realism is what Disney is going with on the mermaid movie.
I know, it sucks.

I feel like people are completely missing the point of the entire issue. It's about staying true to source material. If they made a Winnie the Pooh show, and instead of him being a yellow bear, they made him a brown bear. It's not the same anymore.

I'm black myself, and i think this is a stupid decision. If it's not broke don't fix it.
I have no argument so I'll use ad hominem instead.

Winnie the Pooh's color is irrelevant because it was never a focal point of his character.
Ariel's color is irrelevant because its not a focal point of her character.
That doesn't mean they have to change her skin color. Stay true to source material. It's not that hard.
