I don't remember seeing any black Santas but there were a few black Jesus. I don't know what it would be like if your spiritual superhero is a different race than your own. But if you realize that it's all fantasy then the race doesn't matter and you can make the race whatever you want.
Should there be feelings of "empowerment" or is that too much like supremacy?
