There is more meaningful social commentary at a Gallagher show.

An African-American student at Sacramento State University is under fire for her recent work of art – which consisted of “lynching” two white men from a tree on the northern California campus.
The men were reportedly actors and were in no real danger during the project, which took place during the day in early December while students were on campus. The men were hung from a tree with a thick rope.
The senior responsible for the performance art, Christina Edwards, defended her project to Fox 40 News.
“The purpose of this performance was to bring to light social injustices and the issue of inequality that impacts me and my community as a whole,” Edwards said.

Woo Hoo, Sac State, my home town college. Way to go. I’m sure if the races were reversed, nothing would change...
Funny, but NOT art.
I’d counter it with a watermelon on a big hook. That sounds pretty artsy too.
I wonder what the Jewish kid in the class is going to do for her senior project. Ovens or crosses?
While I respect this individual’s right to self-expression, the subject is poorly chosen and cheap. It’s easy to make trash. Heap this display into the same pile produced by people who see nothing good in creation, but only misery and victim-hood, but don’t call it “art.”
How inspirational and ‘uplifting’.... pun intended. Buncha garbage art themes.
What is he?
A diorama of Auschwitz maybe?
***“The purpose of this performance was to bring to light social injustices and the issue of inequality that impacts me and my community as a whole,”***
I notice the bigoted left always gets a pass when they ‘explain’ the purpose for their hypocracy, racism, bigotry, sexism,...you name it.
Why?
Santa?
>>“The purpose of this performance was to bring to light social injustices and the issue of inequality that impacts me and my community as a whole,” Edwards said.
These modern day over-entitled blacks wouldn’t know what to do if they ever encountered REAL racism. I’m a 51 year old southern man and I’ve never heard of anyone being lynched, never seen a black lunch counter, or a colored water fountain, or a “blacks go the the rear of the bus” sign, or seen a bus driver make a black person give up their seat for a white.
“The purpose of this performance was to demonstrate that blacks can get away with this crap where a white person would be roundly condemned. This of course destroys the myth of ‘white privilege,’ since if there’s any group on merican campuses that’s accorded extraordinary privileges it’s obviously not whites.”
They lynch them in the classroom, why not out in the green?
Anyway, just another one of the many shake your head and roll your eyes events staged by the left.
literal LOL on that one...
She's a college student now, right; this isn't a story from back in the 1950's?
