Franklin's 50th "Peanuts" Anniversary | The Daily Show

[@TheHeroOfTomorrow]

"Why is the dog at the table?" In fairness, Roy--that dog cooked their meal. Lol

[@yuuko2171]

Lmfao it's true x'D this is probably my favorite comment on all of youtube so far

[@bilalc4415]

TheHeroOfTomorrow damn who put the dog on cooking duty???

[@michaelramon2411]

The dog was the only competent chef among them.

[@SkarryTerry]

It's all about context, ROY. Lol. That dog worked hard in this dog eat dog world, let him be.

[@printthelegends]

AND... he didn't cook turkey. Their Thanksgiving was popcorn, jellybeans, pretzel sticks and buttered toast. It's the whole point of the cartoon! Peppermint Patty complains about the meal and learns that the food itself doesn't matter. It's everyone coming together... and everyone includes Franklin.

[@michaelramon2411]

The thing that made Newspaper!Franklin so important was the fact that he was normal. He was just there. Maybe not as a main character, but no one in the comic ever treated him differently, and at that time, that was the type of cultural image people needed.

[@paigewashington6018]

Michael Ramon agreed

Schulz is the correct spelling for his last name.

[@spiralentree737]

The original token black character

[@RIXRADvidz]

and there were outcries of ''tokenism'' when he was introduced. because 'Peanuts' was such an institutionalized icon, sexism, racism and sexual identity all had to be addressed at one point or another. Marcy and Peppermint Patty are the token lesbians. they were introduced in the 1970's when Women's Lib was big.

[@charlesmarilynbillington3532]

SpiralEntree no not the first. Remember Buckwheat on little rascles?

[@Vinnafetish]

Charles/marilyn Billington I definitely remember him.

@Adrian Duran Franklin was added into Peanuts, so I'm confused about the point you're trying to make. So, are you saying that adding the Franklin character (the lone black kid) was somehow unnecessary? Please elaborate.

[@bizema2003]

If he were added now, instead of 1968.

[@Lon.BedStuyforLife]

@Katie Coonley So, if the Franklin character was FIRST introduced in the most recent PEANUTS movie/show/comic strip rather than back in 1968, folks with progressive views would see this addition as irrelevant? I still don't see how the comment(s) make sense. There is still much racial, social, and economic issues that bleed into the entertainment industry. These eissues resonate throughout time until they are resollved. As of yet, they are not resolved, which is why these issues are still major touchy talking points.

Actually she wrote Charles Schultz several times, to ask about adding a Black character to ease racial tensions and normalize racial interactions.
