Well, I suppose there were also limitations to casting black people as Imperial military personnel (those people reminiscent of the British Empire and Nazis) and Tatooine, being somewhat reminiscent of Texas with Middle-Eastern additional vibes, too may not have been too suitable. But ... whatever.

I don't know, maybe Lucas even was racist sometime around 1977, but by 1980 no more. Who the hell knows.
