But they were based on one. Like what if they took an African superhero team and made them American so there's only two black characters on the team and a Tutsi character was white. And the city was in America but it was combined with an African city so they used African iconography to make it look 'exotic'. Disney would be steamrolled.

This isn't exactly the same thing, but it occurs to me that Disney made a Tarzan movie without any Africans in it, or any sign that Africa was even inhabited by human beings other than a single white man. It was pretty well received.
