And how can you be racist? Well, there was a time when blacks couldn't drink from the same fountain. Here you are, suggesting segregation based off a fantasy film. I really can't see how anyone would think you were racist.

Segregation? LOL Get the fuck outta here man. Stupid analogy and comparison, one meant to obfuscate the point here: STAY TRUE TO THE LORE. Want to deviate? GREAT! I like deviations - when they are advertised as such.
Nope this is simply woke appropriation. If you can't see the problem with it, or how inherently racist the whole practice is and insulting to blacks in general, than i can't help you.
Wanting things to be the way they are MEANT TO BE is not racist. We are talking works of fiction here, so things should be presented the way the AUTHOR intended. Anything else is a bastardization.

or black, gay Achilles in the BBC Troy series. Literally described in the book as having long flowing blonde hair.
Or shooting black Nazis in a recent Call of Duty game?
I understand the need for diversity in modern pieces - it's part of the world now - but black people were never a major part of medieval europe and I don't see what the point is in pretending otherwise.

Oops might be called a racist there watch out! Please don't introduce facts into a discussion where those who see race everywhere through their woke filter attack people for not wanting inappropriate changes.
This is Lord Of The Rings, a SPECIFIC complaint about altering the original text with characters and races that do not belong IN THIS STORY. Other stories? Rock on! But leave Lord Of The Rings alone.
No one is going to like this garbage, trust me. Not even woke wankers with an agenda.
