The '''Blacky Fun Whitey cartoon''' was a cartoon published by [[The Fed]] on Friday [[February 20|February 20th]], [[2004]]<ref>[http://media.www.columbiaspectator.com/media/storage/paper865/news/2004/05/12/YearInReview/Citing.episodic.Racism.Students.Stage.Protests.Bollinger.Responds-2033814.shtml "Citing 'Episodic' Racism, Students Stage Protests; Bollinger Responds"], ''Columbia Spectator'', 5/22/04.</ref> during Black History Month. It sparked the [[Columbia University Concerned Students of Color Protest]]. The cartoon was intended to highlight the reductionist effect of Black History Month on the subject of black history.<br />
<br />
It was part of a series of cartoons called '''Wacky Fun Whitey''' by Ben Schwartz, who had already graduated at the time of the cartoon's publication. <br />

Seems about the right age, does comedy in the northeast... Though it seems like someone who got hired as a freelance writer for SNL would have better jokes than a person who wrote Whacky Fun Whitey for years. --[[User:Nonsensical|Nonsensical]] 15:35, 6 July 2007 (EDT)<br />
