Black Valhalla

In the entry, “Hobbit casting director accused of racism,” Sage McLaughlin writes:

It’s as bad as you say, and worse. In the upcoming movie adaptation of the comic book Thor, a black actor named Idris Elba has been cast as the omniscient guardian of Asgard, Heimdall. Yes, that’s right: a black man has been cast as a Norse god. Of his casting, Idris has the gall to say, “If you know anything about the Nords, they don’t look like me but there you go. I think that’s a sign of the times for the future.” A more open expression of liberalism’s basic program to erase whites not only in fact, but even in memory, could not be made.
