What is wrong with this picture??????????

For those who keep up with my blog, I posted a controversial post about the "black woman bondage chair" some time last week. It was about a Russian magazine that came under fire for an editorial photo showing an interviewee seated atop a chair designed to look like a black woman with a belt around her waist and thighs and her legs up in the air.

The magazine later offered an apology, but looks like that was not enough for a fellow Russian Alexander Kargaltsev, a gay New York City-based photographer and gay activist. In protest, he decided to stage his own response to the "outrageous and tasteless" portrait with an image of a naked black man seated on a naked white man, whose legs are folded up to create a "chair."

Kargaltsev explained the idea behind his photo to Out There Magazine, saying:

It deeply saddens me to see that racism is now being glamorized and thus made not only acceptable but trendy by the likes of Ms. Zhukova. My own composition reverses the visual injustice and offense perpetrated by that editorial and in a way restores the equality of genders, races, and sexual orientations. Sadly, I understand very well that my work will be seen by most Russians as provocative and inappropriate, while that repulsive image (published on Martin Luther King’s Day of all days in a year) will hardly make anyone over there shake their head.

Your thought pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
