If she identifies as a Latina (as she's said) then it is an issue. It really is. It's fine if she wants to identify as a Latina - she's biracial - her choice. But when actresses are competing for roles - and this is a huge issue - you really can't have it both ways.
And Nina Simone would have been horrified by the blackface thing - and she wouldn't have been too polite about it.
Identifying as Latina doesn't mean she's saying she's not black. This is like saying Nicki Minaj or Rihanna identifying as West Indian is an issue. That is their
culture
.
A black person cannot wear blackface. This is absurd.
Zoe is not biracial. She has the same racial make up as Rihanna and Beyonce - one black parent, one mixed parent.

Nina wasn't biracial, so why is she played by someone biracial?
How about Rob Schneider as Mulan's dad?

They should have cast Uzo Aduba instead!

I've seen The Jazz Singer and Wonder Bar.
Al did blackface, Zoe did blackface.
Quit diverting.

You fail to grasp what "blackface" really means. Check out the White actor AL Jolsen who literally painted his face black to mock African-Americans thus the term "blackface."
