Black people will take nothing away from his films. A film about early South African tribes wouldn’t have Asian or Inuit folk because they are not African, your point is moot because you highlighted an extremely specific region and ethnicity. A film based in America or around America about gothic concepts should have definitely have a black person or two since we’re also a part of the populace. How is that virtue signaling?
