The movement bent on erasing all depictions of real and fictional folks, from Teddy Roosevelt and Christopher Columbus to Aunt Jemima, doesn’t go far enough for some. Pumped by the recent successes of the nationwide cancel culture, a prominent activist is targeting none other than Jesus Christ.
Claiming that depictions of the Christian savior and holy family as Caucasians are hurtful examples of racial “oppression,’’ Shaun King, the Black Lives Matter firebrand, has demanded that such images be destroyed.
“Yes, I think the statues of the white European they claim is Jesus should also come down,” King posted to Twitter Monday. “They are a form of white supremacy. Always have. . . . Tear them down.’’
Who’ll be canceled next? RFK? Anne Frank?
Jolly St. Nick?
