It's often that black children are drawn as playmates of Henry's in these strips. They are not drawn in a politically correct manner, natch, but it should be noted that Henry may be the first integrated syndicated comic on the newspaper page. The kids are very much part of the same neighborhood with the whites. My thanks to James Conder for pointing out the Hogan's Alley article Henry: Not Black Like Me by William H. Foster which dives into this.
