The Walking Dead is noteworthy for having one of the most racially diverse zombie survivor casts: the band of survivors has included a Mexican family, an Asian Indian doctor, two “rednecks”, a samurai-sword-wielding Black woman, and an Asian man. This is a show where both men and women kick ass.
It’s ironic that The Walking Dead could have such an obvious “Black Man problem”
Since the first season of The Walking Dead, the show has failed to highlight Black characters when the show takes place in Atlanta, Georgia. In the first season, there were only two Black characters, Morgan and T-Dog, neither of them received significant screen-time as we all know.
More specifically The Walking Dead has not been able to have two Black Men at the same time. As soon as another Black Man is introduced to the band of survivors he dies or the already existing Black Man dies. This has happened for three seasons now, I just hope Tyreese can hang on a little while longer. His future is not looking too bright...
