Some are angry that the actress cast as "The Mummy" is a "white woman." They apparently didn't do much research, as the actress, Sofia Boutella, is Algerian-born. (Image source: YouTube screen cap)

Social justice warriors outraged over 'white woman' cast as 'The Mummy.' There's just one problem.
April 14, 2017
As if liberals don't harbor enough outrage to keep them plenty busy these days, some are letting loose on the upcoming Tom Cruise movie "The Mummy," hollering that the film's creators had the nerve to cast a "white woman" as the Egyptian antagonist back from the dead.

Yup, the actress who plays the mummy — Sofia Boutella — hails from Algeria, a north African nation that's 99% Arab and Muslim.
Not exactly a spot that those (well, those who do a little research, anyway) would characterize as a Caucasian haven.
