A group of activists are objecting to the caricature of a picaninny (a word that my spell check does not accept, by the way) on a city carousel.
It’s only a picaninny if you call it a picaninny. Why isn’t it just a painting of a small black girl from the turn of the century? And yes, the kid peering around the corner has bug eyes that seem to stand out because he is black. So?
Your eyes would bug out too if you saw an angry cock that big.
If you watch Arthur Penn’s “Bonnie and Clyde,” do you think the depictions of the midwest depression era farmers paint them in a favorable light? Some of the dialogue makes them sound borderline retarded (particularly the scene where Bonnie meets her mother for a picnic.)
“Bonnie and Clyde” was hailed as genius for its hyperrealism.

Is that little black Sambo peeking around the corner?
Blacks are hypersensitive
“Activists”. Synonym usually reserved for liberal assholes in today’s world.
How quickly everyone forgets all about the genetic bond between poultry and blacks, how the rooster teaches them how to walk and let’s not forget “fried chicken”. I see nothing wrong with this..
If I was going to pick a ninny, Joe Biden would top the list.
Sorry but Joe is a full blooded Cotton headed Ninnymuggin
Another ‘I want my 15 minutes of fame’ reject heard from.
So who’s next?
All tyrants, from Stalin to islam, destroy history to consolidate power. That is why they are removing all images of American Indians and blacks in historical context.
Once gone, they will all be forgotten within a generation.
What ends up taking it’s place is a lie crafted by progressives.
I mean, it isn’t particularly good art, but since when has the left cared about that?
OT…Wow Grizzly Adams Died. RIP
so what are they protesting? … the portraiture of a present pecker to a future picker?
…yeah, I know, I’m going to Hell for that
Little Black Sambo is a British tale about a Hindu boy.
The kid in the picture looks more like a Dindu boy.
🙂
It’s “nin”, not “nit”.
Objectively looking at it, all that’s wrong with it is the kids have adult faces and are not cute.
