Where Is Black Man…

posted by Jarrettin My WorldComments

This morning while playing Superhero’s with our 3 year old Elijah, the following conversation took place…

Elijah : Daddy, where is the Black Super Hero?

Me : Which one pal?

Elijah : The Black one.

Me : What’s his name?

Elijah : Black Man.

Me : Black Man?

Elijah : Yah, Black Man. He’s got that super cool car.

I looked and looked, but alas…There is No Black Man. Just a bunch of Steroid Ridden White Dudes in Tights and Capes. Why are all my sons Super Hero’s White…Dudes? Where is Black Man?

WE NEED BLACK MAN!
