- Racebending abstract "Racebending or whitewashing are terms used when the race or ethnicity of a character, in a story, is altered to an ostensibly more "palatable" or "profitable" ethnicity. "Whitewashing" is the older term, with "racebending" coming to the fore, as a broader term, since Patrick Stewart performed Othello in a "photo negative" production, as a white man, with an otherwise all-black cast, in 1997.The term has also been ascribed to non-Caucasians conforming to or having been taught to conform to White or Western culture. This has been perceived to happen to Tiger Woods and Barack Obama, wherein they were made more palatable to the majority of Americans, rather than just their perceived ethnic group.A study in 2004 by Mica Pollock spoke of the race-bending occurring within American schools. Racial categories remain as key social engineering devices and as such Racebending becomes a way to strategically impose racial labels; a way to refuse to analyse racial inequality. The clumsy analogy from race experts would describe it as "we don't belong to simple race groups, but we do."In many cases, this can be seen in American filmmaking, when non-White characters or non-White European cultural markers are altered to cater to the perceived viewing habits of the majority Caucasian, European-based society. This often involves changing the race or origin of certain characters. Notable examples include 21, King of Fighters, Prince of Persia, and Speed Racer. At one time, the practice of "yellowface" and blackface were used, but have since become taboo.In an interview for the documentary, The Slanted Screen, Producer Terence Chang describes being told to change the race of the white villain in the script for the Chow Yun Fat vehicle, The Replacement Killers, and make him a Chinese drug lord instead. The logic: "If the hero is Asian then the bad guys have to be Asian as well."There were negotiations for a movie adaptation of Neil Gaiman's, work Anansi Boys, but the "moviemakers wanted to change the lead black characters to white or drop the magical elements altogether". Gaiman claimed not to need the money, "Not needing the money puts me in a magical place because I can say no. I like the idea of having good movies made or having no movies made."".
