No.

Look, on The Flash they made Iris and Wally West African-American. Dinah Drake is (I believe) Latina. They CREATED a new black character to join with Professor Stein to become Firestorm (in the comics, there was a black character that was part of Firestorm, but I think he was in the Stein role). They made Hawkgirl African American. And in the movies, they just made Black Canary- well, black.

So they cast a white actress in a supporting role for a character that was black in the comics. I say if you are going to be okay with them changing up the races of other characters, you shouldn't be complaining if they do it in reverse.

As for diversity, this cast is already pretty diverse, including two main supporting cast members being black, and one that is Asian, and the lead is a lesbian. I say they are doing pretty good on diversity.
