Isn´t the problem the fact that a breed of racism popular back in the 1890s is suddenly considered publishable again? Only now we have Kate Moss playing a sexualized starving African woman in place of minstrel shows....the most CHARITABLE implication beting that Africans themselves, of course, have neither bodies, brains nor voices with which to represent themselves. We can only hope that the inside of the magazine contained a healthy number of drawings of evil-looking Arabs with big noses taking over the globe, since such cartoons also seem to be making a comeback.
