so that Japanese lady is blonde Huh?


She is now Japanese thereby denying her paternal lineage.
The world has gone crazy.
I guess if they had caught her cheating or in a wrong act they will not attach her behaviour to the land of the Samurai.

It's racist

You don't know the meaning of racism.
Blacks always looking for excuses for their bad behaviour.
I don't support the picture though, but it was clearly NOT racism.

These australians are the worst set of racist whites, they think everyone is like the aborigines they robbed off their land

Imagine turning osaka to a white blond too, meaning her natural heritage doesn't fit his intended message of better white

What is it with black people always seeking out opportunities to scream racism? When will black people start focusing more on getting themselves productively engaged instead of seeking offense where it barely exists?

Naomi Osaka dyed her hair blonde for the finals. Therefore the artist was not at fault and those talking about Osaka's hair colour are only taking advantage of most people's ignorance. Even with skin colour, anyone who is not colour blind will immediately notice that Osaka's skin colour as depicted in the cartoon is closer to Serena's than it is to the white umpire's skin colour.

The cartoonist creates his humour by exaggerating people's physical features, as he did with Serena's lips and physique, as well as the umpire's long nose. Black people need to stop this unhealthy obsession with playing the racism card and divert their energy to solving the many self-inflicted problems in their communities.

In my opinion, I don't see the cartoon depiction as racist.
It's a cartoon for Peter's sake, the characters doesn't have to look exactly like them.
why make Osaka white when she's black as well.

u wont know cause we don't experience it, go to YouTube and see Wat black Americans are facing, especially indiscriminate shooting by white cops. Just the other day, a white police woman shot n killed a black man in his own house cause she thought it was her house, it took 3 days b4 the police arrested her, n now she's on paid leave. Video like that are all over YouTube of police killing blacks for little or No reason. Racism is fucking real.

It seems you are suffering from amnesia.
How is what I said related to what you brought?
We talking about racism you talking about religion.
I understand you:when you are insecure in your thought especially when you can't reply appropriately you fish for a way to provoke our religious sensitivity.

I won't go down to that stinky mud you want to drag. You may as well sink and sleep there for all I care.
peace out.

He even gave her blonde hair, while this might not be racist, I think serena deserve some credit as well, even though she behaved bad at the beginning, she did calm the crowd n cheered up Osaka. If u watched the video u will know what am talking about, these white are just over reacting cause serena is black.

Somebody wanted his name to trend worldwide. He quickly reached for a well known racist trope and used it against a world famous black celebrity to make sure it did.

Serena Williams should take it easy with all this opposition forces that are intimidating her both at the tennis pitch with a view to having a punch of her.

She has won all the biggest tournament in tennis history.

Let her cool off her temper, obey tennis laws and then close out a successful career.

Thank God she is married and have kid and with sucess, fame and money, the sky is already in her arm.

I thought racism is only in football but I am beginning to learn that tennis and sports generally have their own share of racism.

So true.

those black Americans are suffering because we failed here in Africa.
It's actually not discrimination but lack of respect. Blacks are at the bottom of social and economic ladder and we are being treated the way we deserve

The matter was strictly about racism not religion yet, you stupidity couldn't be controlled but to go out of line to spew your usual rubbish because you lack the IQ to remain on the matter.

Please, eat some carbohydrates and some vitamins they will help you grow some brain cells in your head

If you don't think the cartoon is racist, you obviously don't know what Racism is.

You think Racism is only when you're called the N-word?

I have a question for you sir

If an African-American Cartoonist had published such satire, would it still count as racism?

Now, tell me who's the racist.

A sensitive, Or conscious African American Cartoonist would never create something as offensive as that, that would be like pointing a loaded gun to his own forehead.
