        By all means, let's euphemize the past and pretend racism never happened rather than trying to contextualize it.

        By all means, let's depict hideous caricatures of blacks and claim, "IT'S JUST HISTORICAL CONTEXT". At a children's museum, no less

        Euphemizing the past excuses it. It's not pretty, but to pretend it didn't happen doesn't teach anyone anything.

        then why aren't you upset that blackface caricatures aren't included? You must be furious. How dare they withhold black racist tropes.

        I'm not condoning the mural, but it's like the Censored 11 Warner Bros. cartoons. Educate people about the stupid racism and stereotyping ..

        Rather than sweeping it all under the rug and acting like everyone got along and was treated equally then - or now, for that matter.

        because idiots see a museum they've never been to remove an exhibit they've never cared about and choose to get angry about it?

        And I do agree, I don’t think that anyone should be stereotyped. Portraying anyone in a negative way is wrong. That’s what is wrong today!

        The Democrat mayor of Springfield ripped the museum for caving into this. Mayor Sarno is the man

        The caricature in the mural also has slit eyes & a rice patty hat. I am certain this is offensive, having been to China & being Chinese
