Honestly if TvTropes wasn't pozzed you could have 100 pages of "tropes" that SJW authors have been repeatedly invoking for the last 10 years. I think there's already a "Magic Negro" trope. Need one for "Strong Diverse Woman That Can Kick Ass".
"Male Combat Osmosis": Being near a bunch of males somehow makes you better at combat yourself as a female. Most often declared or lampshaded as "I grew up with a lot of brothers" to justify a 100-lb woman out-wrestling 300-lb men.
'Magic/mysterious black man' has definitely been a thing for years at this point. Scary Movie literally invokes the term when the cast speak with the black janitor played by Tony Todd/Candyman of all people.
And it repeatedly comes up across all media. As an example 'The Adjustment Bureau' has Anthony Mackie as the only "Angel" who is [actually] black and out of them all he's the one who helps the protagonist.
The Shining and The Talisman (books, both by Stephen King). In the latter, a Magic Negro sends the protag on his adventure.
In the former, the black man saves the day (unlike the movie, where he's just unceremoniously killed by Jack Nicholson) by getting Wendy and Danny off that damned mountain.
