    Being miscast means a role you wouldn’t usually be cats as or wouldn’t be good in so just because Jalani is black doesn’t mean he is bad in the role. I saw him twice in frozen and he is phenomenal

    I never said he was bad. I haven't seen the show, but I'm sure he wouldn't have been cast in a leading role in a major Broadway musical if he weren't talented. Rachel Bay Jones said she was miscast as the "Spanish Rose." Patti Murin said she shouldn't have played an Indian. LaChanze said she shouldn't have played a Hispanic woman. There is nothing wrong with admitting that they should have had a white guy play a Norwegian.

    katwil89 Arendelle is a fictional country. Also the plot of Frozen doesn’t deal with race whereas Bye Bye Birdie does, Rose is not accepted by her mother in law because she is Latina marrying a white man. Her race is integral to the plot. In Frozen they are A. In a fictitious magical country in which snowmen can talk B. Not discussing race or race relations. And C. Never explicitly stated Kristoff’s backstory. For all we know he could be an immigrant. Also, there are far more roles for white people than for people of color which is why it is acceptable to cast a POC in a traditionally white role. You are giving opportunity to an underserved community rather than taking one of the few precious coveted roles that POC have written for them away. Hope that makes sense

    Even though the main inspiration for Arendelle is Norway, it isn’t set in Norway, Disney has stated this multiple times. Arendelle is a scandinavian-ish fictional kingdom that has trolls and magic. The race of the characters isn’t really important.
