It's totally fine when white people do it. /s
Am I allowed to be annoyed at race swapping if I'm consistent? If you're going to make a movie about characters with a canon appearance, the actor should conform to that appearance.
If you're making Romeo and Juliet, the actors should at least look Italian. Now, if you're doing a full reimagining, that's a different thing. If you're making West Side Story, half your cast should look Puerto Rican. But if you're just doing a straight telling of a story, especially a historical one, casting choices shouldn't distract from the story.
