Fascinating photo. The two picaninnies are a nice touch.

Now that is a term that I have not heard for a while, not since "Huck Finn" and "Little Black Sambo" were burned by the Library of Congress

Often used to (affectionately) describe aboriginal kids here.

 

[Gustaf]

It was also a non offensive term used here, but now there is a new term used every year to reffer to a "person of color" (this may be offensive now, all I know is that I am not allowed to use the word "Norwegian" in my father's house)

Why is it that I really did not look at the kids but rather the bottles!

 

[Gustaf]

Joe, you must be color blind. I did notice that the wine bottles were about as big as the kids.

Picaninnies? That term would get you cut in this town!

I bet golliwogs are taboo as well.
