Tolkien Black, formerly known as Token Black and Token Williams, is a male fourth grader at South Park Elementary. His name is a play on words, referring to the politically-correct idea of the "token black guy" commonly featured on American television shows.

Tolkien's race (and usually the rest of his family) is often the subject of many plot points/recurring jokes throughout the show. Eric Cartman is the most common source of this bigotry.

He is voiced by Adrien Beard.

Appearance[]

Tolkien wears a light purple Armani Exchange shirt with a letter "T" in light orange and a pair of dark gray pants. He is African American and has dark brown skin. He has short black hair.

Personality[]

Tolkien is usually level-headed, calm and rational. He has also been shown to be highly intelligent. However, this has caused Cartman to label him "a smartass."

He has a strong willingness to stand up for himself and his rights; in "With Apologies to Jesse Jackson", he was obviously incredibly upset by Stan's dad Randy saying the N word on Wheel of Fortune, and did not forgive Stan until the latter admitted that he would never be able to understand the connotations of the word.

He was also annoyed by Cartman's constant racial stereotyping in "Christian Rock Hard", but managed to contain his frustrations and continued to work with him. However, he eventually lost his temper with Cartman, physically assaulting him for saying "F--k Jesus!" in front of a huge crowd of Christian fans.

In "Here Comes the Neighborhood" he took the other kids' teasing personally, causing him to feel like an outcast and not part of the group, possibly indicating that he is sensitive to social criticism.

In the episode "Free Willzyx", he helped Kyle and the other boys save a whale, revealing a compassionate attitude.

In "The Losing Edge", Tolkien and his friends were forced to play baseball tournament by their parents. However, he and the other boys absolutely hate baseballs and wanted to play video games. Tolkien and his friends are attempting to throw themselves out of the game before they would go post-season for the finals. However, they win games due to the other teams (who also hates baseball) much of their displeased. During the semi-final, Tolkien and his friends were about to have a shameful win but finally got disqualified due to Randy Marsh, allowing Tolkien and his friends to spend their summer to play video games.

He is in love with Nichole Daniels. However, in Skank Hunt, Tolkien and Nichole causing him and the other boys (who were broke up by their girlfriends) crying. Until in "Dead Kids", Nicholo is trying to make her relationship with Tolkien work again.
