When it comes to the progressive left, it’s almost impossible to keep up with whatever social justice flavor of the week they’re peddling.
Now, it appears even the left is struggling to keep up with their Rolodex of perpetual grievances.
Media titan Disney has found itself in hot water after a popular new children’s show, “Hey A.J.!” (based on the children’s book series written by former NFL standout Martellus Bennett) seemingly offended the black community.
To wit, “Hey A.J.!” is a children’s cartoon about a young, black girl named A.J. and her family. She uses her imagination and whimsy while playing with her toys and family, and the show features a heavy dose of music.
The show also features “Captain Durag.”
(For the unaware, durags are close-fitting head scarves closely associated with the black community.)
“Captain Durag” is a superhero from the “Hey A.J.!” world who helps the main character with everyday life. He’s depicted by a black man in a purple, armored outfit, with a giant durag around his head (eye holes are cut out of it).
It didn’t take long for the character to take the internet by storm — and not all the attention was good.
