Netflix Blackwashing Parodies refer to a meme trend in which established characters who are normally depicted in one particular way are changed to be a different race when it comes to the Netflix adaptation of a fiction or non-fiction story. The parody trend started similarly to Netflix adaptations around 2018, but as Netflix continued to adapt more properties, race swaps became more common, causing a resurgence in memes to return each time. With the Queen Cleopatra controversy in 2023, Netflix blackwashing memes are typically used to showcase real-world or historical figures being portrayed by actors of different races.
