Slandering the Babies
I am a student at Miami University, and one of my classes uses your
website to discuss the roots and evolution of racism as promoted
through visual imagery. I read a little about the collection and saw
that you were always adding things, especially contemporary items to
show that racism is still alive and well (which is something I
strongly believe).
Anyway, here is a t-shirt that I stumbled upon a couple of
weeks ago. I can't think of any item that better depicts the
stereotypes Americans hold towards black people, and also stereotypes
that they promote to other cultures about blacks in America. I hope
you find this more helpful than offensive.
Best Regards,
