Now, some may find this entry a little off-colour (pun INTENDED!!), but what you are seeing is not an expression of racism, but rather black supremacy. I will explain: as you can see, the black gentleman nailed to the crucifix and currently in flames is not in fact a person of African descent, but a symbol. This man represents the caucasian person's view of the average black man, large chain, gold tooth, etc.
Notice the fact that he is a lovely shade of midnight black, not unlike the hue used in vaudeville's "black face" performers. The man nailed to the crucifix is smiling because he knows that he is setting an example. This black man is happy to meet his certain doom because he knows that all the preconcieved notions of black culture go up in flames with him.
Now look at the so called 'supremacist'. He is overweight, unintelligent looking (note the eyes), and it appears some child has been practicing their penmanship on his ceremonial robes. He is stating "dumb nig" which pretty much sums up the general attitude toward the black man. He couldn't be more wrong. Excelsior, Nicole! Your artworks of rebellion and social defiance inspire us all.
