The notion of taking back a stereotype never was something I agreed upon until I listened to this video.

i wonder if they know that the only reason why it has over 4k views is because my art teacher makes all her students see this video. i myself have seen it atleast 8 times

Good for your teacher! Some students lack a depth of understanding to recognize the power of reclaiming stereotypes.

No problem with depicting black women with guns, but why the stereotype looks? I guess I just don't get it. Besides being a gun owner I also play banjo. I have several figures of people playing banjo and some of them are African Americans but they are all tastefully done. No bug eyed, jet black skin etc... When I see that stuff in flea markets, I cringe
