I swear, this is lily white elites pandering to black people. What a pathetic caricature of "African culture".



Oh 100 %. Reminds me of the movie trading spaces. Condescending as frick lol. Some board made up of 99 percent whites thought this was a great idea to show their wokeness. Too damn ignorant to even understand that Africa has like over 50 countries, and each one has their own individual sub cultures and traditions.

I was wondering the same.
What would a statue honoring European culture look like? German? Irish? Italian? Greek? Now, we ignorantly lump a continent twice the size of Europe into one caricature.

Nice touch, but that flame in his left hand should be replaced by a 40-oz and there should be a 9 in his right.

thought it looked bad when I first saw it but the more I look at it and just think about it as a piece of art the more I like it. It does remind me of african art I've seen which is more caricature in nature.


So literally minstrel sculptures.

Alright then. This is just like the we are colored people, no black people, no African Americans, no people of color.

Just make up your damn minds already.

You know things are fricked up when Africa and North Korea have better statues than us.

There is ZERO chance someone in the US could build a statue with a nuclear family, masculine male, decently in shape female with a gesture of aspiration.

We can only celebrate dysfunction, immortality, and mental illnesses while flogging ourselves for sins committed 200 years ago.

If anyone can look at this and feel optimistic I want some of what you are smoking.
