BrassFusion Posted December 13, 2006 Posted December 13, 2006 http://www.chick.com/reading/tracts/1102/1102_01.asp See if you can count the stereotypes. Edit: I got about six or seven distinct ones. And yes, this tract was developed ESPECIALLY for black audiences. There aren't too many words because black kids don't read so good, apparently.
pomba gira Posted December 13, 2006 Posted December 13, 2006 that's truly appalling. Kind of an utterly charmless re-make of "The Little Match Girl", only the kid doesn't even get to have any comforting hallucinations before kicking the bucket. That isn't so much insulting to black folks as it is an affront to the entire human race. Gawd.
BrassFusion Posted December 13, 2006 Author Posted December 13, 2006 And the awesomest part is that this was printed THIS YEAR. It's not some relic of the bygone "Blatant racism is OK" era in our country.
HipsterDufus Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 Holy freaking yikes. I'd like to see someone give out these tracts in Harlem or downtown Detroit and see how far it gets them with the locals... :devil

That's how out-of-touch with reality some people are.

Well, by all means, we should encourage them. By the time the first body or two of these idiots shows up, maybe they'll finally learn some valuable lessons about proselytizing. Or maybe not. Either way, it's one or two fewer idiots in the world.
