Culture Jam – Black Children are Beautiful

By Persephone  //  Culture Jamming  //  2 Comments

If you follow the pro-choice movement, you most likely heard about the anti-abortion billboards in Atlanta claiming that black children are an endangered species. I don’t think I really need to go into the reasons why this message is overwhelmingly racist so I’ll just get to the culture jamming.

I came across this post today featuring an awesome act of culture jamming, reclaiming these billboards.

Here is the original billboard

      I was really happy to see it as well. I can’t believe there aren’t more people outraged over the original billboard. There is so much fail in using racism to try to point out what you see as racism.
