The act of changing a white character's race for no reason and casting an actor who is usually black but can be any other race same as white washing but without triggering any outrage. This choice must be met with applause as any who disagree with the casting choice are just racist. Examples include Kingpin in Daredevil, the human torch in the fantastic four and L in The new Death Note.
1: hey did you see they cast Tilda Swinton as the Ancient One in Doctor Strange I'm sick of Hollywood whitewashing?
2. I know it's pretty stupid, could be worse though I just found out they cast Idris Elba as Roland Deschain in the dark tower I'm sick of wood staining too.
1. That's racist!
