There’s more:
[Image: A young Arab man holding up a photograph of a white person offensively dressed in stereotyped “Sheik” clothing with a pretend bomb duct taped to their chest, holding a plastic cup and smiling. The text says: We’re a culture, not a costume. This is not who I am and this is not okay.]
[Image: A young East Asian woman decent holding up a photograph of a white person dressed offensively and appropriatively in an over-the-top Geisha costume, with their hands pressed together in a prayer-like motion and an exaggerated pouty lip look on their face. The text says: We’re a culture, not a costume. This is not who I am and this is not okay.]
[Image: A young Latino man holding up a picture of a white person offensively and appropriatively dressed in a costume wearing a sombrero, a colorful poncho with an exaggerated long handlebar mustache and a stuffed costume donkey on the front, making it look as if they are riding the donkey while smiling. The text says: We’re a culture, not a costume. This is not who I am and this is not okay.]

YES THIS! THIS!
I want to paste this everywhere and am a bit tempted to print some out and put them around where I live. Especially with Halloween coming up in the area of the world I live in. First year back in the South and I am just bracing for the fail. These are wonderful and a big round of applause to everyone who had a hand in making them. I really, really wish that more organizations would make these types of posters and put them around.
Also, please let me know if the image descriptions need editing or fixing!
POST THIS EVERYWHERE
This is great!
