Black political photography at its best! (not)

January 07, 2009 By: The Good Doctor Category: politics

 The New York Times features an article about the challenges the CBC faces in the upcoming term, what with a black President and all. The article has many of the challenges that journalistic accounts of black politics has–confusing age and ideology, ignoring the differences between black constituencies in favor of an approach that focuses on “respect”. The picture they chose to accompany the story speaks volumes.

Absolutely hilarious.

I want readers to do a favor for me. Add your favorite caption. And I’ll announce the winner in another post.
