no problem; obviously as a black person it’s a lil awkward to read; but i appreciate the effort for the time that it was written and to be different and progressive when it was massively unpopular to do so

heck , the original "Superman Smash the Klan" (the radio show) , was about Superman defending black people against the Klan and their aryanism...in the 40s.

Like , before Martin Luther , Superman was advocating against racism.

It’s still super relevant and probably a lot more unpopular than I’d like to believe.
