All I'm saying is you can't have it both ways. Likely there are people on both sides of the equation that are guilty of this. If it doesn't bother you that the cast of Avatar [The Last Airbender] is all White it shouldn't bother you if Michael B. Jordan plays The Human Torch in the Fantastic Four movie.
There is no both sides of the equation though on the topic of other visceral reactions to Black people being included in things, for example when Cheerios had a multi-racial couple in a commercial they received a lot of negative backlash.
