'A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving' accused of racism over seating of Franklin

 

ABC's annual "A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving" special was slammed as racist by some on social media, with some viewers objecting to the dinner-table seating of its only black character.

The scene in question has four characters from Charles M. Schulz’s iconic “Peanuts” cartoon — Sally, Charlie Brown, Peppermint Patty and dog Snoopy — sitting on one side of a makeshift outdoor table for Thanksgiving dinner, with Marcie at one end of the table and Linus at the head.

      Oh Brock there is one, but you seem to be against mass executions so I won't propose it.

  5. Uh-oh! They had a four chair set and then comes another person and they pull out another chair which doesn't match the set. Of course, it's racism! --Ron W

    1. That's a given. But I have and do regularly hear and see a lot of condescending racism from white leftists who hold blacks and other racial and ethnic minorities to lesser and inferior standards of conduct. Although much of their prejudice and bigotry is directed toward certain members of those same minorities who have "flown the coop" of the leftist plantation. --Ron W

      Absolutely except those Asians who excel, then they ignore them. :)
