They don't have any black people to play black people. Japan had similar problems with Godzilla.

Yes I do know that. There are also black people in Norway, Russia and Scotland- just not many, and realistically someone might have to compromise on the casting to insure there were actual actors involved instead of people who matched skin colors with their potrayal. Edit: What is the purpose to making odd rules to reflect our mystical concepts of racism based on cultural copy? Its hard enough to explain actual racism. No need to muddy the water with nonsense.

Then have the actors play Africans without coloring their skins - it rarely adds to the performance. "X" face is offensive in any context, whether its Mickey Rooney in yellow face in Breakfast in Tiffany, or politicians in black face (like the Premier of Canada) or Chinese in white/black face. !<

Then don't do something with black people in it.

Not a hard thing to do unless you're racist.
