FLASH:

Otello will be played by Dolph Lungren in a made-for-tv-movie.

Actually having a Negro portray Othello is nearly as incaccurate as having one portray Huck Finn.

I say nearly because some use of the word in ancient times would have included Negroes and Shakespeare does call him Black.

The fact is tho that the Moors of Spain were mixture of Arab and Berbers. As likely to have Blue eyes as most Europeans. They were not Black as we use the term.
