I was looking through my childhood belongings over break and found a few power ranger figures in my mum's basement. Later that day I was on google looking up the show that I loved so much as a child. As I typed in the search bar the most ridiculous thing pop'd up it said "Power Rangers Racist". Now not seeing this show since I was a young lad made this line seem ridiculous, until I did some more research.
I never noticed that all of the power rangers actors matched their power suits. Zach the Black guy had a black suit. The girlie girl had a pink suit, Asian the yellow suit.... The red power ranger was a native american. It is almost to much to handle and is quite strange they got away with it. The white ranger ended up being the leader. I just can't believe it took me till I was 21 years old to realize how bad it really was, I guess ignorance is bliss
Has anyone else felt this way about the power rangers? I still am in some sort of shock over it.
