Considering Sam Wilson’s extensive comicbook history as a civil rights activist, I’m gonna need more headcanons about him combatting antiblackness, police brutality and microaggressions. 

Like, please give me long in depth meta about Sam participating in rallies and protests, discussing #Black Lives Matter in press conferences & raising awareness about the discrimination he and other black LGBT+ members face. 

Don’t get me wrong: headcanons about Steve participating in social justice are well and good, but I get a little tired that there’s more meta/headcanons/etc of the white male hero battling racism or leading protests against antiblack police brutality than there is of Sam, who’s a literal hardcore civil rights activist in the comics. (Or that there’s an undeniable undertone that it’s somehow more noble or awesome that the white guy is doing the bare minimum, but that’s for another post) 

Basically what I’m saying is: More Activist/SJW!Sam Wilson would be nice
