About #1: So you don't see the racism in portraying Dr. Rice, who is extremely distinguished, as a thick-lipped, buck-toothed squawking parrot who mangles the English language? I think its because you don't want to see it.About #4: The implication is that Dr. Rice is a monkey trainer. The association of Dr. Rice with monkeys is overtly racist. But then again, the Mirror is garbage anyway. And about Doonesbury: So basically you give this strip a blanket pass no matter what is said? I don't know what nationality you are, but I'll bet you would be pretty sore if YOUR background was taunted. |
