But to answer your question about why it wouldn't be okay, I think it's fine for pretty much the same reasons I don't care about the little mermaid example. I don't think it's worth caring about either of them, but a lot of people do, whether they're on the social justice side of the issue or they're criticizing that social justice side.
Well, that's ridiculous. I'm thinking of white musical artists who sing/perform music from other ethnic backgrounds. For instance, I'm a huge Bob Dylan fan. He's covered the music of Muddy Waters and performed his own original songs in the style that most often associated with African American artists. I see no problem with it. Why would I? It's art. Art is open to interpretation and change.
