New York: March 1993 - What if Queen Elizabeth was black? What if Spike Lee was white? What would it be like to sleep with someone of a different race? COLORS asks the questions nobody else does. COLORS presents contemporary anthropology in a provocative, irreverent style. This fourth issue looks at race and racism. What is the difference between black, white and in between? We know everyone's blood looks the same. But what about hair, eyes, noses and earwax? Why do people have painful surgery to look more "white"? Why do German skinheads attack Vietnamese immigrants on the subway, or black kids in Atlanta beat up a white man on the street? Also in this issue of COLORS: an international glossary of racial insults; a feast prepared from the earth's tastiest insects; a customized map of the world that shows where the neediest and the greediest live; our Yellow Pages, and much more. |
