One person that comes to mind is actress Cynda Williams. The last time I saw her in a film was in a lifetime movie featuring Vanessa L. Williams. Of course, I also like Thandi Newton and Carmen Ejogo.

Another thought is that perhaps a great deal can be done with stage make-up if the skin-tone of the actress is an issue. Look at how much they lightened Halle Berry's skin for her portrayal of Queen in Alex Haley's film. I would like to see an unknown actress get a break by portraying Lena Horn.
