Where's Waldo?

Where's Waldo? And by that I mean, find the black people at Glen Beck's Rally.



It's a fun game and you can play it with all the photos I found on http://dc.about.com/od/protestsandrallies/ss/Glen-Beck-Rally-Pictures.htm

In case you need a clue, there is one gentleman in the upper left-center wearing a badge, presumably telling the white woman where to find the restroom.

a) By sheer probability a random picture taken of a crowd is extremely unlikely to only find person one of color unless that group is overwhelmingly white. Now if the photographer was intentional in taking the picture, it wouldn't be random but there was no indication of that

If you consider it abnormal, sure. If you assume no malicious intent (hardly a given), sure.

b) It doesn't mean a thing to people who aren't used to being in or around people of color, because, well, they aren't used to seeing people of color.

Not that what you said addresses anything, of course.

Malicious intent isn't necessary for racism to exist.

[badlydrawnjeff.livejournal.com]

Actually, intent is absolutely necessary. A small child who doesn't understand anything but prefers to play with white instead of black dolls cannot be racist, for example.

Your definition of what racism is is badly out of date.

[badlydrawnjeff.livejournal.com]

No, my definition of racism is exactly what normal folk consider racism. What definition are you using?
