There’s a movie, White Man’s Burden, that hits in a similar way to what your idea does. Travolta and Harry Belafonte in world where African people had been in the role of what Europeans did in the Americas, set in the modern era (at the time of the film) in a post slavery world.
It was a thought provoking film at the time, and holds up moderately well. Travolta and Belafonte managed to play off of each other extremely well and not make it feel preachy or forced.
