On today's episode of "The Overwhelming Caucasity of DC": I was watching a clip from Young Justice tonight and saw this character, voiced by Zeno Robinson:
His name is fucking Holocaust.
His only involvement in the plot is a) being sold by a metahuman trafficking ring that kidnaps and enslaves people with control chips at a literal auction where b) he is put in a fight against white girl Tara so the audience will feel bad for Tara, and then c) instead of being rescued by the heroes, ends up as part of the villain team who ran security for the auction.
Oh yeah, and it gets worse, because he's this show's version of Leonard Smalls from Milestone Media, except he's clearly been whitewashed because of course they did that. And the comics character already took up the name Pyre for a time because of the obvious insensitivity of Holocaust, so they could have just...named the Young Justice version Pyre! Nobody would have objected to that! They didn't need to slap an H FOR HOLOCAUST on him!
Seriously what the shit.
