Waiting for Superman

Look up in the sky! It's a bird! It's a plane! No, it's a black dude?  Superman is the worlds greatest superhero and has been for 75 years. Now as the world of comic book authors, artists and producers becomes as diverse and reflective of the world we live in, is it time to reimagine the Man of Steel? In this episode we talk about the politics of inclusion and how diversity has affected even  fictional societies. Does the S mean the same thing if it is not worn on the chest of a white guy from Kansas? Can we accept Kara/Supergirl if she's from Brazil?  Are we really making progress on inclusion, or are we practicing tokenism? All questions that we ask and answer in this episode....
