Tbh, i brought up the Guardian first, but i was clearly pointing out the readers comments, whose great majority don't see any racism in the cartoon, in fact in complete disagreement with the tone of the article. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But my point was that I know as much about Eskimos as Australians know about Blacks and that's not much. You appear to be hyper-sensitive to alleged racism against a black American, and utterly dismissive of actual racism towards Canada's First Nations people.

What a load of twaddle. It’s been a huge response,” said Today show host Georgie Gardner. “Huge reaction which I think, in itself, is fascinating. The vitriol and the hatred that has been unfurled as a result. Honestly, my mouth dropped open, because I do cover a lot of black news and a lot of it is hard to take, but when I saw this — a blatant caricature of one of the most celebrated athletes in the world — it was offensive, shocking and completely uncalled for,” she said. Members of the African communities in Australia and African-Americans in the US have condemned a cartoon of Serena Williams by Mark Knight as "racist" and "sexist". Global Opinions What the Herald Sun’s Serena Williams cartoon reveals about Australia’s racial history It just goes on and on. That you don't see it amazes me.

Daughter of MLK " So unfortunate that this is your response; and without consideration for the painful historical context of such imagery and how it can support biases and racism today. Why wouldn’t a human being care about that?" The cartoonist didn't even know about the American Jim Crow cartoons saying, " no knowledge of those cartoons or that period” and he thought the said people were “making stuff up”. Someone should provide a bit of education to these fellows. Should Black Americans be exempt from being caricatures in cartoons the World over ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The connection between the cartoon today and the cartoons in the museum of memorabilia is they look the same. That is why that cartoon was racist. No I won't post racist pictures for you to ogle. Go look if you have an interest. I looked and many American blacks have looked and expressed that on TV and in the news media. Google Jim Crow and Aussie cartoon.
