Cartoonist Mark Knight defends depiction of US Open tantrum amid accusations of racism

Veteran cartoonist Mark Knight has rejected suggestions his depiction of Serena Williams is "racist", saying those condemning him are "making stuff up".

A Washington Post article said the cartoon used "dehumanising" facial features, while Brenna Edwards, a black journalist who reports on news and politics for Essence magazine in the US, told ABC News the cartoon "dates back to the Jim Crow era".

"Honestly, my mouth dropped open, because I do cover a lot of black news and a lot of it is hard to take, but when I saw this — a blatant caricature of one of the most celebrated athletes in the world — it was offensive, shocking and completely uncalled for," Ms Edwards said.

>dehumanizing facial features
So a caricature

Ugh this is like Muslims raging over cartoons of Muhammad. Fucking stupid. Cartoons look cartoons for fucks sake its not a photo and it captures likeness in caricature. Retards.

The real question is, how would you draw this person without it being racist?

lmfao this narrative is destroying the left because whenever anyone looks at the events they immediately realize how privileged and entitled she really is.

>nigger gets caught cheating
>insists she wasn't cheating
>chimps out
>finishes losing match after being dominated from the start
>coach later confirms to helping nigger cheat
>tennis and media kikes cover for nigger
This is why the media are right about one thing: they really are in danger.

>most celebrated athletes

It's not the cartoonist's fault that blacks aren't human.

These idiots do realise that Australia isn't in America, right? Jim Crow means nothing here and who gives a shit about what some bitch at WaPo thinks?

This is some DR3 shit right here. It's just a cartoon of a person that happens to be black.

Mark Knight is the biggest cartoonist in the country over here, he's kind of an institution. I wonder if his paper will knife him over this.

That's just it, you aren't allowed to draw or make fun of anyone that isn't Northern European white. Everything else is cultural appropriation or racist now.

just an accurate depiction of a non-human

> a blatant caricature of one of the most celebrated athletes in the world-- it was offensive, shocking and completely uncalled for,

Yeah, that's what a caricature is, an exaggeration of yourself.

These things aren't human. Just look at it.

Why do Americans Worship black people?

Insult their God and they don't blink an eye. Insult an African watch them go crazy.

Certainly not accurately.

truly the greatest shitposters on earth

Niggers get incredibly assblasted over the slightest mention of apes/monkeys or reference to something remotely connected to niggers.
As an example, the GOP candidate for Florida governor said "don't monkey this up" (a saying that has existed for a long time) during the campaign against a self-described 'progressive' black. Immediately you get heaving and whinging from shitskins and kikes about "racism".
