Breaking the Saturday Morning Color Barrier



Recently, I wrote a post for MTV News about the pioneering characters of color on Saturday Mornings. I covered the Pre-Golden Age character Mammy Two Shoes, as well as the "firsts" Pete Jones (The Hardy Boys, 1969-71), Valerie Brown (Josie and the Pussycats, 1970-72), and The Harlem Globetrotters (1970-71).
