Whenever people use “historical accuracy” to explain fiction with little to no positive representation for people of color, I just want to shake them because Tom Cruise played a samurai. THE LAST SAMURAI. I will never stop being weirded out by that.
I just got done semi-watching 47 Ronin, in which Keanu Reeves who is ¼ Chinese played a ½ Japanese ½ white guy who was also a samurai and there were demons and a snake lady and stuff
