Is this a celebration of Black culture, or is it racist?
This is one young person’s opinion of the cartoon.

It’s obviously both. The young woman couldn’t have been speaking with any greater depth of ignorance. Her only redeeming feature was that she was holding a tuxedo cat.??
You’ll find more swell entertainment at this link, including the follow-up cartoon, “Swing Wedding”. Don’t miss “The Chinese Nightingale”!

Yikes! Racist? Nah! Of course it is. Maybe one day there will be a racist WHITE cartoon lampooning Jan. 6! That was a very odd review!
