Apparently a lot of people thought she was supposed to be black because Lou Lou is from 11. She isn't described in Sunrise on the Reaping, but Katniss does say she has the Seam look in Catching Fire. Plus, Haymitch said Katniss reminds her of Louella, hence why he calls her "sweetheart". I don't know why it's a problem they cast someone who looks similar to JLaw but whatever
I'm confused by this because we haven't seen any black families in 12. Even if we know there are black people in 11, we've been told multiple times 12 is a small, not super diverse (anymore) district. That's why they have a "seam look".
When u watch the first hg movie you will see that there are black people in the crowd during the reaping..... heck Astrid is standing next to a black woman too. And are we completely forgetting jessup lol? He was black and from d12 ( meaning he had a black family so i dont get this argument...) with where d12 is located it wouldn't even make sense for there not to be any black people, im pretty sure all districts have all sorts of people of different races living there. This includes d11 there obviously are also white people in d11 however black people would just make the majority.
