Sorry I have a hard time believing that Roald Rahl, racist and antsemite extraordinaire, wanted Charlie Bucket to be Black

This is the same guy who hated Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory because a Jewish man played Willy Wonka. That’s a huge part of why Roald Dahl hated it because he felt it was “corrupt” because of that

And the Oompa Loompas were originally racist caricatures of Africans until they changed it in the reprint. So, yeah, I don’t buy it.
