Chronicling the creeping demise of Diversity™, Equity™, and Inclusion™, otherwise known as institutionalized racism. 

Sign of the times: Deflated lib genuflects at lackluster George Floyd mural outside of WingBucket

After all the grandiose hype of 2020 — a racial justice revolution spurred on by George Floyd’s overdose — it’s come to this.

If it’s possible for an eleven-second video to capture the shifting zeitgeist, this surreal one, depicting a lone lib kneeling before a low-quality Floyd rendering outside of a fast-food chicken joint — which doesn’t even look anything like him — does the trick.

DEI Cincinnati police chief: ‘There is no room for politics in law enforcement’

“There is no room for politics in law enforcement,” Cincinnati police chief Teresa Theetge admonishes Americans, in the context of the two white people beaten by a black man on the streets after which a member of the city council praised the assault as a victory for Social Justice™.

The irony is that this Theetge — a portly, visibly out of shape and incompetent police chief who couldn’t run a mile in under ten minutes, if at all, or do a single pull-up to save her life — almost certainly got hired because of politics.

ANOTHER giant fat black woman statue appears in major North American city

Had you assumed that the appearance of the obese, bored-looking, frumpy black woman statue that mysteriously haunted Times Square earlier this year was a one-off event — given how poorly received,  almost universally, the display was and given the demise of USAID that surreptitiously patronized so much of this “artwork” — you could have been forgiven.

But no.

More obese BIPOC monuments are apparently in the offing, this time in occupied Canada.

Via Canadian Art Junkie (emphasis added):

“Around the world, Price’s powerful figures are helping us reimagine public sculpture, and it is with excitement that we welcome extraordinary art to Toronto,” says Stephan Jost, Michael and Sonja Koerner, Director and CEO, AGO.

Internationally renowned for his large-scale sculptural works situated in public spaces, Price’s massive bronze figures depict fictional Black subjects.

Described by Price as “psychological portraits,” his sculptures are composites, combining details from ancient Greek, Roman, and Egyptian art, with subtleties observed from daily life.

As opposed to the Times Square figure who has her hands on her enormous hips, the fictitious and cartoonish rendering of a black woman in Toronto stands with her clenched fists hidden in her sweatpants, apparently contemplating an act of violence that North America’s urban community is statistically documented to have a penchant for.

There’s a certain sort of stance, and poise, and attitude to her which I think, you know, a lot of people are going to recognize in the sculpture,” the master behind the masterpiece, Thomas J Price, explains.

Indeed.
