It would be really funny if Sif is still white because she's his sister.

If Friar Tuck can be black, why not?

After the last time Asgard died, the gods' souls got scattered into
human bodies. They pretty much kept those bodies in the new Asgard.
For other instance, Loki wound up female, though he got some
masculinity back after doing some horse-trading with Thor and Sif.

Why not indeed.

You had it right up until you said they kept those bodies in the new
Asgard...other than some slight design variations (basically no more
than costume changes), most of them look more or less the same as they
always did in the Marvel version.

Loki only wound up female because he hijacked Sif's Asgardian body
(and magically altered it so it wouldn't be immediately recognized as
such)...eventually he disgarded said body and returned to his true
form which was always male and looks pretty much as he always did.

I wonder if they will have him speak in Shakespearian Jive.

If he's not descended from Africans he can't be African.

The first men who reached the Arctic circle were prehistoric people who
had come all the way from Africa. They lost their pigmentation
progressively, as well as developped reduced lips and nasal cavities so
that these sensitive tissues would not be exposed to extreme cold.

Later, probably due to the Ice Age that killed the mammoths and covered
Groenland with year-long ice and snow, some of their descendants went
South to present day Afghanistan and Pakistan, were they were known as
the Aryans. They mated with these locals and gave them the technology of
horse carriage and the sanskrit language.

Don't you remember people vehemently defending Tuvok as a "African
American Vulcan"?
