Gosh....and, all these years I’ve been thinking it was the content of our character that was important.
Glad Sesame Street is here to straighten out my thinking.

Can you say “black muppets?”
Will they name it “Barack?”

article:
"the color of our skin is an important part of who we are." I don't think Martin Luther King had this in mind. In fact, quite the opposite.
To: ConservativeStatement
So Elmo, the red fur wants to know why they are black?
Makes sense.
No mention that the Father/Son combo is as rare as a Snuffleupagus. Just questions about fur/skin color.
Got it.....

Wes and Elijah?
Why not Jamal and Shitavious?

And if it is similar to TV ads and TV shows and other aspects of brainwashing, the black male muppet and a white female muppet will be doing their own type of celebration of diversity.
To: Loyalist
Exactly. If Sesame Street is going to have to black puppets, why not give them ghetto names.

Tell me about it! They are being gender specific which we all know now is RACIST! RACIST! RACIST!
Have you ever seen this video? Using “gendered language” is offensive.......

It’s okay.
They’ll both be killed in drive-by’s by the end of the week.
Aspiring rappers all.
No mother should have to suffer the death of a child just because they were committing a robbery.

Maybe we should spring Bill Cosby from jail so they can bring back Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids.

...Elmo wants to know why Wes's skin is brown, so his father Elijah explains the concept of melanin and how "the color of our skin is an important part of who we are," Martin Luther King is spinning in his grave.
