The film "Dead to Rights" features a cast of Chinese actors portraying Chinese characters in a historical context, which is culturally appropriate and does not involve explicit DEI-driven casting in the sense of race-swapping. Its narrative centers on the resistance of a non-Western, non-white group against an oppressive force, highlighting themes of human dignity and historical injustice, which aligns with aspects of diversity and inclusion without explicitly critiquing traditional Western identities.
