Well we've tried black green lantern. Woman green lantern. And gay green lantern. What's next?

How about disabled green lantern!

John Stewart was also introduced well before any of the IdPol bullshit that currently infests the industry, so he's actually a developed character and not a one-dimensional stereotype, author mouthpiece, or pandering token.
