The poster is not racist. The artist who made that painting could possibly be racist.

ETA: artist is white, so racist

It's one of those things that as soon as you see it, one of the first thoughts you have is "are black people going to think it's racist", but I really don't know what about it makes it racist. It's crazy that's the thought that comes to mind. I really don't know why, but it does. I'm personally not appalled by it, but I'm a white guy.

If it were one white kid and one black kid painted in the same style, would it still be racist?

Everything is racist! Just face it. If you use the word black, color something in black, or even see black when you close your eyes you are racist. I mean that is unless you are black then you can do anything you want.
