Hard Wired is a concept that has been created by Wayne to push beyond the boundaries of what is promoted by mainstream media in direct relation towards black children seeing themselves as heroes and saviors. Also creating alternate realities and universes that can lead black children's imaginations in positive but also creative mindsets that can lead to further progression. I remember growing up and watching cartoons myself as an 80's child and rarely did I ever see a black super hero. The only thing that I can remember is 98% of the heroes that I saw were all non-black, white superheroes. In the type of society that we live in where most images that are promoted by mainstream media creatives such Wayne is really doing something here that I know not only myself can relate to but also other black children who aspire to do better things and make a difference. Right now children only really have a rat that is a rasta, which in my opinion is disrespectful and contrary to what the essence of what Rastafari is all about.
His concepts are that of individuals who are a team that have taken it upon themselves to fight upon the principals of justice, truth, freedom, peace and equality. Also interconnecting universes with characters and allowing alleviation's of bias, prejudice and any other misconceptions or distorted views of righteousness.
I say all this to say keep your eyes wide open to what this creative young soul has to offer. A father himself I can understand the importance of why this is not only relevant to the black community. But also to his son and every other child that should see themselves in a better way and positive perspective.
