Your comment about her teeth was uncalled for. No, it was exactly on point. I made the point early in the discussion. I commented on how the cartoonist put lips and teeth on the end of a beak, how they were exaggerated as is the essence of caricature, that they looked even bigger because they were at the end of a beak. Teeth and lips are exactly what we're talking about. Look at the pictures of her and see if she doesn't have two largish front teeth. If you were doing a caricature of her, what features would you choose to exaggerate. Check out these teeth. news.bbc.co.uk The essence of this matter is that if you call this racist, then we can't tolerate the caricature of black people at all because lips will typically be one of the most prominent features and that is racially sensitive.
