No, I'm fully aware of what you are trying to say, but I don't pretend that its not natural for a western dominated society and business to conduct their business according to their standards, nor do I pretend that that said dominated society and business hasn't been progressively become more varied and inclusive regarding races and ethnic backgrounds in all aspects of their productions, just like the society and business itself has become.Monkey King Vegeta wrote:

Hollywood (unlike Bollywood, which is rarely acknowledged) is known for their films which are watched world-wide, for this they are usually used to send out messages to the uneducated public.
The "race issue" arose when people started realizing that mostly white males would play the big roles, sometimes even playing the roles that would ignite a shitstorm, for example the white Jesus myth that the public takes as facts, and most recently the "Exodus" movie in which the royalty had fair skin and (not surprising) the slaves where all black actors.
Theres no excuse for this to go on, the public suffers by being ignorant and believing all the propaganda they see on their glorified films. They're in for a rude wake up call, just as when you found out the WWE was all scripted and those great wrestlers can't even throw a punch in rl.
But back onto the DBZ topic, what I basically wanted to say was that I wanted someone that would look close to Goku in appearance (MA is a bonus) , race wise, anyone can play him correct, but if your gonna use my beloved series to spread some bullshit propaganda, you got the wrong show Hollywood.
So, considering that, wasting time bashing this particular aspect is, frankly, like I said, taking the politically correct policy too far, especially since there's no other movie production industry in the world that does a better job with those issues than the one being criticized.
Said society and said business have already been moving in the direction of continuing inclusion and will continue to do so in the foreseeable future, so strong bashing of these issues comes off as an exaggeration. Your efforts would been better spent in other issues.
