In 1905, Ontario Beach Park in Rochester, New York, was graced with a vibrant new carousel designed by the renowned Dentzel Company of Philadelphia. Nicknamed “The Duchess,” the popular attraction featured fifty-two hand-carved animals and two chariots. It also featured a panel with a derogatory depiction of two African American children being terrorized by a rooster. The panel seemingly did not elicit any noticeable protest until 2015; it was not removed from the carousel until the following year. The reasons behind this lag are explored in Take It Down! Organizing against Racism, an exhibit at the Rochester Museum and Science Center in Rochester, New York. The exhibit employs a somewhat basic format. The original eight-foot-long carousel panel lies behind glass in a display case flanked with interpretative text outlining the history of the piece along with discussions of racism and racist imagery. A video monitor and additional text lie below the panel. The compact setup was informed by one of the exhibit’s stated purposes. The curators, a collaboration of Rochester Museum and Science Center employees and a community advisory board, wanted to create an easily portable exhibit that could be displayed in a number of different types of venues, thereby attracting visitors representing a range of demographic backgrounds. The exhibit’s content is decidedly more complex than its form. The carousel panel, depicting two petrified Black children with exaggerated, fire-engine red lips cowering from a menacing rooster, is an example of pickaninny art. The “pickaninny” is one of a number of racist stock characters that pervaded American visual and commercial culture in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. While the loyal, desexualized “mammy” and faithful servant “Tom” characters are probably better known to the general American public—most notably in the form of Aunt Jemima and Uncle Ben—the pickaninny was equally damaging and effective at perpetuating racial stereotypes. Pickaninny caricatures portray African American children as wild, unkempt figures with exaggerated facial features. They are often pictured either in animal-like poses or as the impending victims of an animal attack. Such
1905年，纽约罗彻斯特的安大略海滩公园，由著名的费城丹策尔公司设计了一个充满活力的新旋转木马。这个昵称为“公爵夫人”的景点以52只手工雕刻的动物和两辆战车为特色。它还展示了一个展板，上面贬损了两个非洲裔美国儿童被一只公鸡吓到的画面。该小组似乎直到2015年才引起任何明显的抗议;直到第二年，它才从旋转木马上移走。这种延迟背后的原因在Take It Down!在纽约罗彻斯特的罗彻斯特博物馆和科学中心组织反对种族主义展览。展览采用了一种比较基本的形式。原来的八英尺长的旋转木马面板位于玻璃后面的展示柜中，两侧是解释性文字，概述了这件作品的历史，以及对种族主义和种族主义意象的讨论。视频监视器和附加文本位于面板下方。紧凑的设置是由展览的既定目的之一通知。策展人是罗切斯特博物馆和科学中心的员工以及社区顾问委员会的合作伙伴，他们希望创建一个易于移动的展览，可以在许多不同类型的场地展示，从而吸引不同人口背景的游客。展览的内容显然比形式更复杂。这幅旋转木马画的是两个吓呆了的黑人孩子，他们的嘴唇夸张得像消防车一样红，蜷缩在一只凶狠的公鸡面前，这是黑人艺术的一个例子。“黑鬼”是19世纪和20世纪充斥美国视觉和商业文化的种族主义刻板形象之一。虽然忠诚的、非性别化的“奶妈”和忠实的仆人“汤姆”角色可能更为美国公众所熟知——最著名的是杰米玛阿姨和本叔叔——但黑皮肤歧视同样具有破坏性，并有效地延续了种族刻板印象。黑人儿童漫画把非裔美国儿童描绘成粗野、蓬头垢面、面部特征夸张的形象。他们经常被描绘成像动物一样的姿势，或者是即将遭受动物袭击的受害者。这样的
