Danish scholar of religion, responds to the debate surrounding the portrayal of Hans Christian Andersen's Little Mermaid as a young black woman in Disney's adaptation. Mermaid mythology is not exclusive to white culture and that it has historical interactions and influences from both European and African mythologies. Diversity in mermaid mythology is a return to its fundamental roots and a recognition of its universal and intercultural nature, rather than a departure from its origins. I encourage embracing the diversity and richness of animist mythology instead of reducing it to an ethno-nostalgic perspective.
