The same way I would describe any other Othello. Othello is still Othello no matter what clothes you put him in.

Would the novel of Othello be different if Othello was white?

There is no novel of Othello, actually. The famous Othello is a play by Shakespeare. Plays are not novels. If Othello was white, Othello wouldn't have been insecure, his relationship with Desdemona wouldn't be disapproved of and Iago might have hated Othello less. That is, of course assuming that Othello is white and so is everybody else. If Othello were white and everyone else was black, the story would be much the same because Othello's insecurity stems from his feeling of otherness, his feeling that he was different from everyone else. Othello has in fact been staged in this way, with a black cast and a white Othello. It has also been staged with actors playing Othello who are not black but are different from the rest in some other way.

Would have Othello killed Desdemona without all of Iago's lies?

No, almost certainly not. Desdemona was a loving and true wife and would not have given Othello any reason to kill her. And Othello was basically a fair-minded man as the play shows before Iago began to spin his web of deceit. Not only that, but Othello truly loved Desdemona and under normal circumstances would not hurt her. Everyone is shocked when he strikes her in public not only because it is shocking behaviour but also because it is uncharacteristic. Without Iago it is as likely that Othello would kill Desdemona as it is that she would kill him.


Who is the most responsible for the tragedy in Othello?
