>“I’m grounded in who I am, and I am a confident black man,” Boyega said. “A confident, Nigerian, black, chocolate man. I’m proud of my heritage, and no man can take that away from me. I wasn’t raised to fear people with a difference of opinion. They are merely victims of a disease in their mind.”
>“I just don’t get it,” Boyega continued. “You guys got every single alien in this movie imaginable to man — with tentacles, five eyes. Aliens that, if they existed, we’d definitely have an issue… Yet what you want to do is fixate on another human being’s color. Stop and think about how primitive that is."
Wait...

IF IT DOESN'T"T MATTER WHY DID ABRAMS CHANGE THE ACTOR TO BLACK?
If his race doesn't matter then there should have been no problem with his character being a white guy.

Can we at least get a source if you're going to bait us?

I guess that black people being inherently stupid stereotype exists for a reason.

Who said the character was originally or had to be white?
>I'm grounded in who I am, and I am a confident white man. A confident, Aryan, white, vanilla man. I'm proud of my heritage, and no man can take that away from me. I wasn't raised to fear people with a difference of opinion. They are merely victims of a disease in their mind.
