Prescott, Ariz., elementary school to 'whiten' image of child in mural
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ynews/20100604/ts_ynews/ynews_ts2425
Quote:An artist's decision to prominently feature a non-white child on an elementary-school mural in Prescott, Ariz., sparked so much controversy that school administrators asked him to "lighten" the child's face after a city councilman launched a campaign against the mural, according to the Arizona Republic. |

Quote:"I am not a racist individual," [councilman] Blair said on a radio show last month, "but I will tell you depicting a black guy in the middle of that mural, based upon who's President of the United States today and based upon the history of this community, when I grew up we had four black families — who I have been very good friends with for years — to depict the biggest picture on that building as a black person, I would have to ask the question, 'Why?' " |
[Mo]Actually it was a depiction of a Latino boy who attends the school. Of course to the local shock radio jock conservative talking head I'm sure all those "darkies" look alike to him.
You know, I wouldn't be so harsh on Arizona lately if it weren't for their new unconstitutional immigration law. However other things which deserve them of racist designation abound, like this, like the new anti-Obama birther bill they passed at the same time they were passing this new immigration mess. I mean I know they didn't get a chance to join the Confederacy before they lost, but perhaps Arizona wants to be made an honorary member of the confederacy. I mean WTF is next, Arizona? We get it. You're crazy racist teabaggers. We understand. Obama is Hitler, but come on now, this is just a latino school kid you are picking on here. Have you no shame?
Love,
-Mo
