Sure, if you don't give a shit about how long-established characters are so deeply ingrained in our culture then yeah, I suppose you wouldn't think it's a big deal.
And honestly, we have a hell of a lot more important issues currently to worry about. Like fascistic vaccine mandates being pushed in the name of "the greater good" and traitorous generals telling our number one enemy that he would warn them if our president decided to attack them and that he wouldn't follow thru with Trump's order.
Oh, and of course there are also huge problems like inflation, 13 servicemen being killed and billions of dollars worth of military equipment being handed over to Taliban because we have a dementi-ridden chinese puppet for a president, an overrun border with hundreds of thousands of unvetted migrants coming in to our country (who, strangely enough, aren't being forced to take vaccines or being forced to take a test), gas shortages, civil liberties infringement by a tyrannical chinese controlled commander-in-chief,....
....and let's not forget the thousands of defenseless unborn babies being murdered in this country every single damn day in the name of "muh women's rights her derp!"
So yeah, you're right, this issue of white characters being portayed by black actors and actresses is trivial in comparison.
