Description of Moana:

Moana, along with the rest of the cast, is supposed to be brown/Polynesian. This racial aspect is extremely important to the characters and story. Please do not whitewash.

sethzarandona I do not understand why there were so many white actresses suggested for this. Moana being Polynesian is an essential aspect of her story, as her entire culture is based around that part of the world. A white actress does not work for Moana.

- morganz @sethzarandona They’re probably trying to be slick and going “Lol if a black girl can play Ariel then a white girl can play Moana” and thinking they’re clever. They’re not, because Ariel’s race has nothing to do with the story and Moana’s race does.
