I was browsing another blog, namely The Assimilated Negro and came across this image from the April issue of Vogue. Do you see racism in the recent Vogue cover featuring LeBron and Gisele?
Was LeBron offered a banana for this King Kong-looking cover? It's a shame too since he is the first black man to "grace" the cover of the magazine.
You can read more from ESPN editor Jemele Hill at her article.

Big black physically dominating male (beast), beautiful frail white woman in his powerful clutches.
Do I get a gold star for my interpretation?
King Kong?
I was very disgusted by this cover. im sure lebron had no idea what he was doing when he agreed to do this. This is a bit too similar to that black monkey, helpless damsel army poster.
