Your Article on Gollywogs

The staff of the Jim Crow Museum receives dozens of letters and emails. Some of these communiques offer insight into race relations -- historically and in the present. While some are hateful, we have decided to share some of these letters and emails with our Internet visitors.

Just a line to say that I find the Gollywog a beautiful thing...and I never saw it as a racist image...I am English/Burmese and an artist and work with Burmese and African children. I think racism is in the mind of the beholder....you may be racist.
