Wait Bravestart was the SAME GUY??

Here's your "Your Old Skool Cartoons Were More Progressive Than You Knew" good news of the day, He-Man, She-Ra and Bravestarr edition.

This makes me v happy, as a childhood enjoyer of She-Ra whose MOO handle in '97 was She-Ra (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MOO), whose youngest is WAY into the new reboot.
Lou Scheimer was born to a German Jewish family and believed that his cartoons had a responsibility to teach children kindness and respect for everybody. Back then there were also MILITANT divides between "boy's" and "girl's" entertainment but when he found out He-Man had at least a small following of little girls he pitched the concept of He-Man's sister She-Ra and was insistent she be as tough a warrior as her brother. He saw that girls actually did like "scary" sword and sorcery and had a WHOLE NEW SHOW made so they could feel acknowledged and have a heroine to look up to with her very own series. Later he would help design a whole new sci-fi fantasy setting with the most creative control he ever had, Bravestarr, and was adamant that the hero be a Native American man, the first ever in a starring role on a kid's action show. He also wanted Bravestarr to be a positive role model by being a patient, gentle, soft spoken man who abhors violence

Just dropped a quick TikTok that breaks down why you should stick with it.
