I don’t really care about any of the discourse, and I would definitely be down for a portrayal of Cleopatra as black if the work doing so was meant to be fictional and against reality. But the problem with this one is that it’s supposed to be a documentary. And what Cleopatra actually looked like, which isn’t unknown to people at all, goes against what they’re ostensibly saying is supposed to be an accurate portrayal. This isn’t someone who’s appearance can only be speculated, it’s known that Cleopatra wasn’t black. Even though there’s apparently a lot of people who think she was?

YEAH. +1

Since this is framed as a documentary, making Cleopatra of Sub-Saharan African ancestry is actually misinformation.
I have no words. It's that simple. There shouldn't be any controversy. This is simply misinformation because we know as a fact that Cleopatra wasn't "black".

(I'm fine with whatever when it's FICTION, but in documentaries? No no.
It'd be very interesting a documentary on WHY some black people want Cleopatra, out of all historical figures, to be black. It's fascinating.)
