:58:00
even though
there was stuff like this?

:58:02
I suppose
things are better now, but...

:58:05
I don't know, it's complicated.
:58:07
People still hate each other...
:58:08
but they just know
how to hide it better.

:58:12
Can I borrow this?
:58:15
For what?
:58:17
I promise
I'll take good care of it.

:58:18
They're very sensitive about
that kind of stuff at work.

:58:22
Don't you trust me, Seymour?
:58:26
Let's address discussion
to this piece.

:58:32
I don't like it.
:58:33
Can you tell us why?
:58:35
I don't know.
:58:38
I think it's totally weird.
:58:40
It's totally offensive.
:58:42
Yeah. I agree.
:58:43
It's not right.
:58:44
Well, these are
all valid comments, but...

:58:47
I think we should see
if the artist...

:58:49
has anything to bring to this.
:58:53
Well, I found this when
I was doing some research...

:58:56
and I discovered
that Cook's Chicken...

:58:59
used to be called Coon Chicken.
:59:02
So I decided to do my project
based on this discovery...

:59:05
as kind of a comment
on racism...

:59:09
and how it's whitewashed over
in our culture.

:59:12
Did you actually
do this painting?

:59:14
Well, no,
it's more of a found art object.

:59:19
How do you think this addresses
the subject of racism?

:59:23
It's complicated.
:59:25
I guess I'm trying to show...
:59:27
how racism used to be
more out in the open...

:59:29
and now it's hidden
or something.

:59:32
And how do you think
an image like this...

:59:35
helps us to see that?
:59:36
I'm not sure.
:59:42
I guess because when
we see something like this...

:59:45
it seems really shocking.
:59:47
And we have to wonder
why it's so shocking.

:59:56
I don't really
know what to say, Enid.
