Help understanding an article and how to start an essay on it?

Well the article is The Absence of Black SuperVillains in Mainstream Comics.

So it seems as though this article is a bit confusing or just tough to understand. I just need some thoughts on what do you think about the article (if you’ve read it before) or just how do you think I can start this essay based on the reading in the article.

Things that might help would be your thoughts on the article, how to start the essay, or simply key points to look to in the article.
