Can't a black man enjoy a slice of watermelon?
It is a Caricature - one of many such in a gallery of other caricatures all drawn by the same artist.
What are you thoughts?
Poor taste?
Bad humor?
Tolerable - in context of it being among other caricatures?
Racist?
Is the artist a non-black person?

does it matter?

It matters to me

Are you calling me one or saying that the image is racist?
Of course context matters and folks go on and on about here so nobody best not be implying I am racist for asking if some crazy who knows what non-black person is the artist. Do not even try it.
you are being racist, you're holding people to different standards depending on their race, that's almost the very definiton of racism.
The hell I AM! Don't ya think it frigging matters WHO the artist is? I mean it could be a Grand Wizard of the KKK!
And BTW, I did not say I would find it Racist! What I said was that it matters who the artist is!
You seem to wanna jump the gun here! I never said I would NOT find it racist if a BLACK person is the artist. Did I? Nope.
I take racism VERY serious and I will not allow someone to try to paint me in a light that I am not in.
Because I like to know something about the artist before making a choice. Of course it Matters. You know what I am trying to say!
And yes Art is subjective but this is one of those subjects that I am very touchy about and I will be damn if I am gonna say that is not a racist pic without knowing who the artist is, background, etc.
Don't you think that is fair? What if it is like a Klan Leader? And just so you know? I hated the pic the moment I saw it and it did bring up other racist images in my mind. OK?
