Othello is a dramatic story on its own merits.
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.

The full title of the Shakespeare play often called "Othello" is "The Tragedy of Othello, the Moor of Venice." There are operas and other musical pieces based on the story and in some of these the name is spelled "Otello."
In Shakespeare's "Othello," the Duke listens to Othello's explanation of the events surrounding Desdemona's marriage and the accusations against him. He expresses understanding and respect for Othello's love story and acknowledges Othello's noble character. The Duke ultimately supports Othello, affirming that their bond is strong and that he sees Othello as an honorable man deserving of Desdemona. This response highlights the Duke's trust in Othello, contrasting with the suspicions of others.
