Mall of America is hosting black Santa for first time ever

The Mall of America — at least in St. Nick’s corner of the shopping complex — is going to look a little different this year. For the first time since the Minnesota mall opened, a black man will play Santa Claus.

“It’s no big deal, I’m still Santa, I just happen to be a Santa of color,” Larry Jefferson of Texas told WCCO-TV.

Jefferson, who goes by Santa Larry, will be at the Mall of America’s Santa Experience for onlyt four days and is available by appointment only. “We are looking to have a Santa for everyone,” he said.

Jefferson said other minority children are always excited to see one of Santa’s helpers who looks like them.

  2. Cant leave good enough alone. Now you open up yourself to all tbe lawsuits. We want a gay Santa, we want a Mexican Santa, how about my transgender Santa, and it never ends.

  3. I don't have a problem with a black or a Mexican Santa. A gay Santa wouldn't work as the "real" Santa is a straight man who has a woman as a wife.

  4. Sure, let's complain about the ethnicity of a fictional character.

  5. I don't think the kids know or even think about what color Santa is, he brings toys and makes them real happy. Merry Christmas everybody.

    1. Exactly, very well said. I'm a grown up and I don't care what color either. I'm looking forward to sitting on Santa's knee, whether white, black, Mexican, Chinese, Indian. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all.

    1. Loooooool, white kids are losing their culture, how? Is white culture fictional (fake) white men delivering toys by flying deer? You see how asinine (stupid) you sound...
