"Red, White, and Beard" is a quirky, lighthearted glance into Sikh Captain America and the man behind this growing phenomenon. As he brings the character to the American public, he hopes they recognize their prejudices towards Sikhs and other religious, ethnic, and cultural groups. But do Americans realize his intent, or are they just respecting the superhero figure?

I am happy I live in a city where we have so many different cultures and races. I really wish the saying or term melting pot would stop being used. We are a country where so many different races and ethic groups can live and coexist and yet maintain their heritages etc.....

Also from where I live it is great to be surrounded by Native Americans and see how they keep their heritage intact.

Heh, I was going to come in here with a smartass remark about how CBM.com wouldn't exactly be the best place to find a nice, nuanced, intelligent conversation about a topic like this. I'm pleasantly surprised at the reaction so far!

Good stuff.

The only problem I have with it is how scrawny the guy is: I guess this is the pre-Super Soldier Serum Cap, eh?

So this Captain America carries a little curved knife in his belt? I'm okay with this incarnation of Captain America, but he needs to eat a sandwich and to do some Crossfit or P90X.

@TheAmericanPatriot

LMAO! Do you really think that call me a "little fat turd" will hurt my feelings? Obviously I must of hurt your feelings for you to report my comments to the Hall of Shame.......

LMAO! So sad........

TheAmericanPatriot - 1/24/2015, 9:55 PM
@ JoeMomma29

I reported your fat ass is because I find it amusing that your feelings get so hurt when you see yourself in the Hall of Shame!LOL!!! Is it really that bad? Grow a pair and move on turd! LMAO!!!

JoeMomma29 - 1/24/2015, 10:03 PM
@TheAmericanPatriot

I am not hurt that I am in the Hall of Shame I think it is embarrassing for you, to see you reporting for some silly banter. If I did not have a pair I would have reported your lame A$$ comments......... So take your own advice and move on. The only difference is I will not stoop to your level by calling your a turd etc...... or even worse bring a child and reporting someone to the Hall of Shame.

You moving on? You not stooping low? Please, don't hold yourself on a pedestal you're the one who called me out on this article that I had nothing to do with. You're pathetic human being JoeMomma, and lucky for you I got to get back to work, Some of us can't sit in front of the computer all day and collect welfare checks. Right Amigo?
