The History of the African American Santa Claus
The history of the African American Santa Claus is a bit different than the history of the traditional white Santa.
Many people believe that the first African American Santa was created in 1892 by illustrator Thomas Nast. Nast drew a caricature of Santa that was wearing a black coat and had a curly beard. This depiction of Santa became popular, and soon other artists began creating their own versions of an African American Santa.
In the early 1900s, black families in the United States started celebrating Christmas with their own version of Santa Claus. This Santa was often portrayed as a jolly old man with dark skin and curly hair. He usually wore red robes and a white beard, and he was often accompanied by his faithful reindeer.
Over the years, the image of the African American Santa has evolved and changed. Today, there are a variety of different depictions of this popular character. You can find African American Santas that are dressed in traditional garb, as well as Santas that are dressed in modern clothing. There are also a number of different figurines and ornaments that feature an African American Santa.
No matter what type of Santa you choose, he is sure to bring some extra holiday joy to your home!
