Transcript of Cartoon<\/strong><\/p>\n

Panel 1 is a title panel, with nothing but lettering.
\nLETTERING: White People Ask… How is THAT Racist?<\/p>\n

Panel 2
\nA young white woman with red hair and a roundish face looks bewildered as she speaks.
\nWOMAN: I’m suing because Black students got into a college that rejected me, and I’m blaming affirmative action instead of my mediocre grades. How is THAT racist?<\/p>\n

Panel 3
\nAn older white woman, with curly white hair and glasses and a floral print dress, speaks cheerfully.
\nWOMAN: I would NEVER use the “n-word.” I call Black people “thugs” instead. How is THAT racist?<\/p>\n

Panel 4
\nA middle-aged white man with glasses and a collared short-sleeved shirt raises his arms as he speaks, looking bewildered.
\nMAN: A law preventing TENS OF THOUSANDS of Blacks and Latinos from voting is a price worth paying if it stops just ONE illegal vote! How is THAT racist?<\/p>\n

Panel 5
\nA large, mostly-bald white man grins, wearing a sports team t-shirt with a grotesque caricature of a grinning Indian, and the team name, “Indians.” He has a tattoo of the same design on one forearm.
\nMAN: I love wearing my team’s merch! How is THAT racist?<\/p>\n

Panel 6
\nA concerned, meek-looking white woman, with a nice haircut and hoop earrings, speaks to the viewer.
\nWOMAN: I just think that hordes of illegal aliens coming from Mexico are ruining America. How is THAT racist?<\/p>\n

Panel 7
\nA brown hand (the only non-white person in this strip) holds a smartphone. On the smartphone, an angry-looking white man in a suit is speaking to the camera; the image is labeled “Angry Channel.”
\nMAN: All I’m saying is that black people have genetically lower IQs, so we should expect them to earn less and be criminals. How is THAT racist?<\/p>\n

Panel 8
\nA young white woman with bright pink hair, a plaid dress, and tattoos covering one arm speaks intensely to the viewer.
\nWOMAN: How can they say “Black lives matter”? Don’t they know that EVERYTHING has to include WHITE people? How is THAT racist?<\/p>\n

Panel 9 (final panel)
\nA white person wearing a full Klu Klux Klan outfit, including the hood, is holding his hands up and shrugging.
\nKKK MEMBER: White people must prepare for the coming race war or the lower races will WIN! How is THAT racist?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
