Diversity in TV has been challenging to clearly and cleanly identify. A fantasy show based on a comic book character is one of the few shows that exceed the mark. #DCComics @thecw tv show @cw_blacklightning is based on one of the first black comic book heroes. It is one of the few dramas that has succeeded in turning every black stereotype on it's head. Created, written and produced by the masterful husbamd/wife team #SalimAkil and #MaraBrockAkil, @cresswilliams leads a primarily black cast creating a family show any child can find inspirational. Current social themes and issues are masterfully illuminated while focusing on the strength and power in maintaining family connections, education and morality. The lead character Jefferson Pierce is a family man, leader of his community who implores wisdom when fighting crime. This is not mindless entertainment but a culture changing experience. #crushtheisms #crushracism #crushatereotypes https://www.instagram.com/p/B446EYVnMiH/?igshid=1ejjuf114pehu

I came up seeing what a lot of young brothers see in this world, and you learn to deal with people with a long handle spoon in order to survive.
