Racism in a Superhuman America (Static Shock Season 1 Ep. 8)

CW/TW: Racism

Chamar and Andrew are here to discuss a powerful episode of Static Shock that tackles racism. In “Sons of the Fathers” we’re introduced to Richie’s father who is shocked and enraged to discover that his son’s best friend is Black. Being Nerds of Color ourselves, we will share the impact this episode had on us as well as the state of racial issues in the comic industry.
