Honestly, it never occurred to me that Katniss was anything but whitey mcwhite white while reading the books and I feel that the movie did a pretty good job showing a broad spectrum of races in all places (except District 12, which is maybe a little white even for far future Appalachia).
Like, I'm sorry, but I'm not going to immediately read a pale olive-skinned girl with straight hair and light eyes as non-white, even mixed but non-white. When I think of non-white and non-East-Asian people, I think of people who look a little more, well, like me. Visibly brown, coarser, curlier/wavier hair, dark eyes, etc.
I can appreciate that many non-white people can see themselves in Katniss and I find the interpretation of her as non-white to be perfectly logical, it's just not what I saw, but I'm sick of being called racist because I don't see someone who could easily pass as white as being anything like myself racially.
