  • Blacks are not a protected species. The many caricatures of Trump and other white people passes unremarked. He drew her as an ugly black woman having a tantrum. That is exactly what she was.

  • Personally Ihink the cartoon was hilarious and was the caricature of what we saw on the court. Williams was a disgrace to her sport and tried to turn her defeat and tantrums in to a woman thing.

  • She turned and made the whole incident about women eqaulity and sexsime issu and branded the umpire as a lier and a thief, and this is exactly how she was depicted in the cartoon...

No.  Rich and educated?  I think that can be any race. 

 

It was illegal marry between the races in the USA in some places till 1967.  I realize being a racist in Australia is different than being a racist in America.  That's one of the reasons this whole thing about the cartoon has been discussed so much on here.  You do know that cartoon would have been illegal in the USA?

I do feel that you were bought up in a racist era and area .

There was probably a lot of racism, discrimination and partial segregation .

Most of the younger generation were not bought up in such a hostile atmosphere and therefore we dont look for racism and dont try to stamp out things that dont exist .

   You view Serena as being a Black woman , I just view her as being a tennis player

I am surprised you don't know about "Black lives matter"  and all of the black young people that American cops shoot every day.

No  bloody idea, luckily I'm not from US. Europeans pillaged half of Africa but never bothered to get into the apologetic mode. Well, at least not until now. White man's burden seems to have become a thing again.

When I was in my 20's it was against the law for blacks to marry whites in America and blacks escaped to France to write and play music and live like human beings.  Germany has the Nazi's and America has the racists.  One of those things.

I view her as 'just a female tennis player' too, and Lewis as 'just a driver' etc. but it is the continual PC liberals and their agenda to constrict all of society into a dumb-ed down vanilla squash that it a huge problem. 

 

A black kid says to his white friend  "I love being black" and  "and the white kid say's that's great I love being white" and the pc mob shout "RACIST".

Those are proper examples of bona fide racism. A satirical cartoon bearing remarkable likeness to the real life photos ain't.

With all due respect I don't think you are the person to judge.  Why did you ask if my wife was the one with the afro?  Racist tell I think.  Aussie thing. Ha ha ha just another black fella joke no harm meant.

Black kid says to his white friend, "I love being black" " and the white kid says lets play cops and shoots the black kid."  That's how they play in America.

Didn't ask, you indicated that your wife was the pretty one and I said she had a nice afro. You really need to be more specific if you want to avoid misunderstandings, like saying "the white pretty one". Of course that might be racist.

You stated that your wife was "the pretty one"

The suggestion was that "the pretty one" was the one with the afro .

If theres any racism in that . then its positive racism (suggesting Black girls are prettier than White girls)

You have not been reading this thread.  Post after post insulting Serena.  Posts insulting blacks.  This has been like a racist Rose bowl parade.

No there hasnt , there have no posts of people insulting Blacks .

There may have been some unpleasant remarks about Serena , but that was because of her behavior, rather than her colour .

I'm sure you are.  You know it is difficult talking to you guys.  In America the Klan or the White precisest do the wink wink nod you know they are racists but you guys think you are not.  Which makes it difficult to have a rational conversation.  When a Klan member talks about eliminating quotas or affirmative action you know and they know they are racists.  But you fellows don't think you are.  You are trying to changes the racist acceptable standards of behavior.

Actually what makes it difficult to have a rational conversation is the other side fuming in holy feeling rage.

Although her legs are large , it does seem to be mostly muscle and not fat

I said post after post insulting Serena as above.  Most have been removed by moderation but I'm sure many remain.

Not surprising since she's a top athlete. Not attractive to the average male, same as female bodybuilders and so on. Skin color doesn't matter when it's the bulk under the skin.

"Ugly" can also mean acting in an "ugly" way , which she was doing .

Besides , it wouldnt be racist to consider a person to be ugly .

I do think that Yoko Ono was quite ugly , thats not being racist though, its just my personal opinion
