Santa comes from a Northern European tradition. Of course, he's white, just like Odin, Thor, and King Arthur.
Would we have a black kid dress up like Odin, Thor, or King Arthur?
Why not?
Let's be honest about the politics of it. Would we have a white kid dress up as Kwanza-Bot in the school play or would that role be set aside for a black kid?
We will have arrived someplace very important when that question is no longer asked or cared about.
