Unsung Heroes of Black History: Panthro

“And despite the fact that Panthro,
a black man of exceptional scientific expertise that far exceeds that of even the famed George Washington Carver, built the Thundertank with simple junk parts, the rest of the Thundereans made Panthro be the DRIVER OF THE FUCKING THUNDERTANK! They made him a fucking chauffeur! What kind of shit is that? Where else in history do you see this kind of hypocrisy? Did you ever see Lee Iacocca drive Chrysler car plant workers around? Does Wolfgang Puck ever bus tables? Did either one of those contemptible George Bushes ever offer to even so much as light a White House page’s cigarette? How many times must black men be the “Hokes” to countless Miss Daisies?” -- KA-CHING!

Your Say

Maybe he was the only one that knew how to drive? Maybe he wouldn't let anyone else drive his 'custom ride'? Maybe it is silly to argue over an old childrens' cartoon?

And - Panthero looks awfully light-blue to me.

You're gonna trust somebody else to drive the Thundertank? Panthro designed and built it, he's the one best qualified to drive it.
