Where can I hire a Black Santa?

[BlackandGreen]

Private household.
An hour or so a year. To promote a positive role model of Santa to two children, primary age. GOQ applies.

Helpful if familiar with bel hooks and her children's books.

Must be self employed, and have own reindeer and sleigh.

No financial reward, but all the mincepies, and black cake you can eat.

Only genuine Black Santas should apply. (No blackface)

A Merry Christmas to All BMNetters and friends!

Here’s one for you. He travelled by speed boat, not sure if there were dolphins pulling it or very aquatic reindeer.

@LizizesTwin He's looking promising! Thanks so much.
Perhaps a little camera shy?
Water skills and dolphins definitely a bonus!

This popped up on my FB. Good luck in finding your lovely Santa x

A quick Google and came across this www.noirkringle.co.uk/

There was also this event, but it's ended now:

You may be able to get in touch with the organisers to arrange something at home for next year.

Thanks Starseeking. That looks great.
I'm a long way from London, however. No Black Santas to be seen.

This is the Santa they had there

there is obviously a gap in the market, I know that we would have loved our son to have had a black Santa to visit when he was little.

There’s one in Leeds called Rasta-Claus. He’s affiliated with Boom Chicka Boom Baby Raves. He’s been their Santa for years
