I saw this "Get Well Soon" style card as part of a display among the antiques in the Crafts building at the Erie County Fair. The display was of old bits of media that depicted the kinds of wild racial stereotypes that used to be regular fare in America's "white" culture. It's always a shock to see tangible reminders like this of just how openly we used to display our racism in this country.
Well, not all that shocked myself, but yeah...
