Cartoon review: “Wild Kratts”

I take a look at PBS Kids’ “Wild Kratts,” an educational cartoon about zoology and ecology.

A look at the first American TV cartoons to feature original Black characters (not tied to any licensed property, celebrity, sports team, etc.).

A review of the Canadian made cartoon “16 Hudson,” about a group of young children who live in a big city apartment building.

Black superheroes with electrical powers has become a well-known cliche. I look at possible reasons why so many Black heroes have this power.

PK Subban is the second Black hockey player to appear on the cover of an EA Sports NHL video game.
