The above picture was taken back in Dec 25th, 1923 during a Christmas celebration in Badagry, Lagos....The racist photo shows blacks painted with the bold inscriptions 'Merry Xmas Badagry, 1923"

So Christmas was celebrated then in Nigeria

I don't see racism in this picture.

What is racist here?

The lettering looks photoshoped tho

But there's a black child sitting with the whitemen. They may think they were being innovative, as is the case with advertisers now painting people completely in white colour, and placing them at strategic locations.

Nothing racial. There are blacks still sitting and posing comfortably, well dressed.

There were NO slaves in Badagry in 1923 held by white men at least.
Except you mean ALL black men were/are slaves to whites! Is that what you mean

If you want to truly inform, kindly choose your words carefully,
Cheers!

No matter how bad a situation is, some1 always finds favour(the little guy in the middle of the white folks)

Why are the black guys sooo black and ugly.

And dem dey bone face join their ugliness.

Do not be mistaken, there is a clear difference between the black and the white races.

One is obviously Superior.

Accepting the truth is the first step to total emancipation.

Living in self denial is slavery in itself.

hmmmm
