    Americans are so weirdly racist. Both Europe and Africa are along the Mediterranean. From the southern most point in Greece to the North most point of Africa is less than 400km. The whole region of North Africa and Southern Europe is an ethnic melting pot dating back 1000s of years.

    But regardless of that, it’s Mythology - not a documentary. I’m not looking to be “immersed” in American racism. I have zero issues with the cast representing the world I live in now, because it was made in the world I live in now, and features the people I live with now.

      Americans are so weirdly racist.

      As are Europeans. Look at the Danes for example and thier protect our couture immigration polices, whites only under another name. Germans just now having another nazi moment, Italy and the fall and current rise of Mussolini like politics. Then lets not talk of Poland and Hungary etal

      Apparently the justification is “North Africans look white.”
      These people geniuenly think melanin is binary and the blackest person from Tunis still looks Irish-American.
