Colorwashing 

In film and TV when historically or canonically white characters are portrayed by people of color for the sake of diversity. This does not fall under the scope of "colorblind casting" because though colorwashing is accepted and even encouraged in the industry, the reverse (casting white people into historically or canonically people of color roles) is extremely frowned upon.
