offensive? no
untactful and totally worthy of scrutiny for the decision to give dark skin and fuller lips to a person who can wash them away, while making a movie about a woman who fought and spoke against the shitty treatment she received as a dark skinned woman? Yes
Is the whole movie going to be judged on its face for that same short-sighted decision? Yuppers
A shitty thing we should still feel ok calling shitty without getting dragged into arguments of "you're racist for not thinking this" or "I'm tired of hearing about racism" or that usual thing that happens on the internet.
