    White supremacy is a helluva drug.

    A two-panel satirical cartoon contrasts reactions to racial representation in historical and religious figures. The left panel, labeled "WHITE JESUS," shows a smiling person wearing a red baseball cap with heart-shaped eyes, clasped hands, and hearts floating overhead in admiration. The right panel, labeled "BLACK HELEN OF TROY," shows the same person recoiling in apparent outrage as their head explodes into a cloud-like burst, with raised hands emphasizing an exaggerated emotional reaction. The cartoon criticizes the inconsistent acceptance of depicting Jesus as white while strongly objecting to depicting Helen of Troy as Black.

    The crowd was estimated to be in the tens.

    We are descendants of those who pushed America to live up to its highest ideals. The legacy of farmers, educators, caregivers, and organizers across the South who believed in the promise of American democracy, even when America did not believe in them, endures in us.
