Ep 10. Black Santa/White Christmas

In season 1 episode 10 of Black-ish titled "Black Santa/White Christmas," the Johnson family is preparing for Christmas while also trying to address some cultural differences. Dre, the patriarch of the family, is excited to play Santa Claus for his family, but his son Jack is disappointed that Santa doesn't look like him. Jack has asked if Santa can be black, and this has caused a debate within the family about the cultural implications of Santa Claus.

Dre's wife Rainbow, who is biracial, suggests they try to compromise by having Jack's white grandfather dress up as Santa Claus. However, this causes more tension as the grandfather doesn't understand why it matters and Dre feels resentful that his own father won't be able to fill this role. Meanwhile, Dre's sister Rhonda is bringing her white boyfriend to Christmas dinner, which causes even more cultural clashes and misunderstandings.

As the family tries to navigate these challenges, they also have to deal with some unexpected guests who show up at their doorstep. It's a fun and heartwarming episode that deals with important issues of representation and cultural differences during the festive season. Whether you're a fan of the show or just looking for a feel-good holiday episode, "Black Santa/White Christmas" is definitely worth a watch.
