Why is Santa always white?
I have just about pissed myself from laughing so hard at this article. It is race baiting at it's finest.

Why is Santa always white?

But then it hit me. Santa was white. Wait, what? Why is Santa white? Santa is always white? Why is Santa always white? My brain went into a frenzy, desperately searching my memory for any instance in which I had seen a black Santa Claus in a shopping center. But I kept coming up short.

I wondered, in a country where we have an African-American president in Barack Obama and where the largest city just elected Bill de Blasio mayor with an African-American wife and racially mixed children, why have we yet to integrate our holidays or their characters?

As I sat there contemplating, I wondered if Santa was African-American, would white families wait for hours to get a picture with him? Would they want their children sitting on the lap of a black Santa? And would that be a picture to add to the family scrapbook or in a frame on the fireplace? I asked myself why, in 2013, does it seem American traditions and customs are only for white Americans? Why are we being left out?

Maybe because Santa breaks into houses to GIVE presents, not STEAL presents.

Re: Why is Santa always white?
Santa actually comes from Heimdallr, and if you read Rígsþula, you will know that Heimdallr created the races and differentiated them into castes. The dark blacks were fit only for slavery, the medium toned were free men, and the lightest were the lordly master race.

Re: Why is Santa always white?
What the seriously fuck?

So if a traditional narrative doesn't feature people who are not white, those missing skin colors must be shoehorned into said narratives?

So fuck it, lets make Zeus black and let's make Hercules a fucking Asian.

The virgin Mary shall henceforth be a mexican because we have to "intergrate our holidays and their characters".

But if we're doing that then I want Shaft to be white from now on.

You're all idiots. Santa Claus came from Saint Nicholas, who used to give a lot of things to the poor and the less fortunate. Santa is another word for saint in German I believe. Claus is short for nichlaus which is Germans pronunciation of Nicholas

We've actually had quite a few in the US.....but the Democrat (Socialist Party) won't give them any credit in history (because they're re-writing it) because free thinking should be discredited and is 'off the plantation'. They've convinced black people that they should be 'taken care of' and that they are 'victims'.....even in our modern society.

Santa's always white because he's imaginary... like the Easter bunny and many other popular ancient figures...

If you run an image search for "Jesus", "Easter bunny", and "Tooth fairy" you will notice that those characters are always white also. Maybe there's a connection. ;)
