The thought occurs to me that sometimes situations like this tell us a lot more about ourselves than about the situation itself. By listening to the tone, tenor, and observing the shape of the arguments on both sides, we see where we are as a society and perhaps, what we might consider in terms of finding the path.
And that's a fact-who knows what the cartoonist intended, or even if his intent and what he says his intent was are the same thing? In the meantime, it's sparked some interesting conversation-to some it's obviously racist, to some it's obviously not. I'm somewhere in the middle-I can see how it could be (mis)construed to be racist, but I don't get how it's "obviously not," unless you're the cartoonist......
