You're right, I should have clarified I meant seeing WOC onscreen, sorry about that. Lupita being part of the film is fantastic, and I am so happy for her, but I'd also be happy to see WOC playing WOC. Like in the MCU, when they finally cast a WOC, Zoe Saldana, in a major role, only to paint her green. Gamora is awesome, but the lack of other WOC in major roles that don't disguise their skin is disappointing.
