Really? Do you really think the guys in Hollywood even CARE if a person was real-life when changing their ethnicity?

Do I really have to remind you that Alexander Hamilton was white in real life, as were most if not all of the Founding Fathers, yet that never stopped Lin Manuel Miranda from changing their skin color to various minority groups in his Hamilton musical? Or how about how 12 Strong changed the ethnicity of at least two of the Horse Men members from white to Hispanic/black?

If they can do that to people who actually EXISTED in reality, they most certainly can do the same for Pocahontas. Not that they should though, and quite frankly, Ariel's appearance shouldn't have been modified either.
