Ironic issue with MLK Memorial

So the guy who was picked to sculp a massive momument to Martin Luther King Jr. as part of a large park like area is Chinese. This is causing drama because a lot of people think it should of been a black artist chosen to make the sculpture.

Any else think it's ironic that Dr. King stood for equality no matter what race you are, and now that they are trying to make a huge memorial to him, it's a big deal that the artist isn't black.

Isn't this exactly what Dr. King was preaching, judge the man on his accomplishments and deeds rather than his color?
