I agree with you on this one. Anne Boeyln played by a black women is stupid but I have no facts for this but I'd lay a good bet that the person who hired her for the film wasn't black.
As Bob Dylan same thing. Dylan is white but I find it funny many whites says Jewish people are not white. Don't they ? But because a black man played him now he's (Dylan who is Jewish) is part of the white club again
But you're outraged when blacks play white characters but when Hollywood white washes characters and has (almost) since its inception that's no problem
Because did you know in Willy Wonka's and the "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" that originally the author, Roald Dahl made Charlie "a little black boy" ? And he also made the Oopma lumpas African pygmies ?

But when it went to screen made them white
How about the Lone Ranger: Johnny Depp portraying Tonto, a Native America man ?
Or in "Aloha" Emma Stone portraying an Asian American ?
Or "Breakfast at Tiffany's" Mickey Rooney as an Asian Landlord ?
Or in "Dragon Seed" Katharine Hepburn as a Chinese woman ?
Or "Othello" Laurence Olivier in blackface to play Shakespeare's Moor.
