That's exactly what Wicked is. She was never envisioned as a nigger, she was just green woman. But the whole idea is that the Wicked Witch of the West is the sane, nice one with actual powers, forced to be an outcast by the corrupt patriarchal society of rotten con artists.

The book and Broadway show have been around for a long time. It was actually the start of the trend of "sympathetic origin story of classic female antagonist".

Also, it's not very good. It doesn't even line up with the original Wizard of Oz well.
