Re: So, should Santa be black?

[personal profile] lynx 2013-12-14 11:51 pm (UTC)(link)
DRIVING BY TO SAY THAT IN (at least several) LATIN-AMERICAN COUNTRIES, Santa/Viejito Pascuero used to be portrayed according to our hemisphere and culture.

Like Chilean!Viejito:



This was before globalization became a thing in the mid-70's |DDD

That said, dudes and dudettes, if it's Saint Nicholas who we're talking about... He was from what now is Turkey, and his skin could have ranged from mid-olive to black. So I can't see why THE SANTITY OF CHRISTMAS IS RUINED if more Black Santa started to be drawn and marketed.
