It is really strange to me that folks dont have a sense that a black person can be lighter skin as well as darker skinned. So it is offensive to have a caucasian play an african american in a biopic the same waybit would have an african american play a caucasian. If they cared about michael jackson's legacy and knew anything about human decensy they would have respecte him enough to have a lighter skinned black character. In the end if they didnt do their due diligence it means they did not care.
