I get that some black characters, or coc's, will come across as boring. Anti-heroe coc of rare, few and far between. I think much of that has to do with wanting to combat the 'black people=bad'. What I find amusing is that so many non-Americans are, "Race problem? We don't have the race problems. That's America. (Or South Africa) but not us enlightened Europeans. And I flat out think it's bullshit when Australians claim not to have race problems, because, hello. Y'all have "blacks" too. And it's not cute what's been happening down there for, oh, about as long as you white folk has settled.

*sigh*

Anyway...not to pick on apl specifically but that coc=boring is frustrating. And...disingenuous. And yet, that argument (or 'reasoning') is brought forth again and again with such sincerity. Such is privilege. It makes it so that people don't even see what's what.
