 The Little Mermaid, Halle Bailey Faces Racist Comments

Millennials, do you remember the time when you used to wait for disney movies? Thanks to Disney for remaking live-action Aladin, The Lion King and The Little Mermaid for us.

On July 3rd, Halley Bailey, the Chloe X Halle singer was announced as the lead Ariel of “The Little Mermaid”.

Just after Disney made the announcement, people started to criticize Disney’s choice for casting a “BLACK” Ariel.

The hashtag #NotMyAriel went viral on social media and people could not hold their opinion about how Halley Bailey is not the perfect choice for the movie.

But, there are people who are tweeting in favor of Halley Bailey making us believe that sense does prevail in the world.

If you have a problem with Disney not casting a white girl to play Ariel in The Little Mermaid because it’s not realistic, we need to have a talk about the reality surrounding mermaids. pic.twitter.com/8oxVp9Aa5I
