-
lol i don't think it was meant to be a king kong thing.....besides isn't she brazilian anyway?
trust me it was. brazilian or whatever she still belongs to the white race
-
sure there's tons of subliminal in this pic, if not the mags would be more reprensentative of the american average people, not the ideal that most people can only dream of. Just open the mag and 3/4 of it is publicity, can't believe people pay for bs like that
-
lol i don't think it was meant to be a king kong thing.....besides isn't she brazilian anyway?
trust me it was. brazilian or whatever she still belongs to the white race
actually, over 50% of Brazilians are white by any common definition
-
lol i don't think it was meant to be a king kong thing.....besides isn't she brazilian anyway?
true, the guy would be white and do the same thing it would be different. It's because he is black that job compare him to king kong, it's job who hates black and compare them to monkeys. He's the one saying it. But i'm just speculating, i know it could be a racist pic, i dont know what to think of it. These dudes are admired and make millions most people respect them

The Gorrilla is an intelligent and powerful creature. While watching King Kong you gotta ask yourself who was the real animal/beast in that movie, the people hunting him with guns after stealing him from his natural habitat or King Kong himself who really reacts in an understandable and logical way to the brutality and insensitivity he is put through. That was the morale of the movie really.
Concerning this cover, I see it like this, there is a strong successful athletic black man, somebody who has attained the apex of their physical. He has with him, a beautiful white woman, whom he appears to have 'attained'. It is King Kongish, but is it negative? Was king kong really an ugly brutal animal? No. He was King Kong. The Chinese attribute animal qualites to people, the dog=loyalty, the tiger=inner strength and courage, the rooster=proud, King Kong/the gorrilla is no different, he got qualities. Pac, Malcom X, Wesley Snipes, they are all representative of King Kong's qualities to some degree.The cover is a picture of success, i like it. Of course there is the prospect of an emerging sterotype that black people are only successful at entertainment and sports and that black people are always portrayed in a certain way, but that isn't because of a conspiracy by them devils, nothing is ever that simple. Its actaully because people LOVE that image, kids look up to heroes and champions, since the days of GILGAMESH. Its an image that people love and the CEOs know they will move CDs and magazines off shelves with that image. Of course, anything in abundance loses its value after awhile, thats another reason why hip-hop isn't selling so much anymore...

i recently heard about this picture...they were asking lebron about it...and he said out of all of the pictures from the shoot, it was the one he liked the best and actually picked. he approved it, knowing full well the implications that people would make. i give it up to lebron for bein a man about it and trying to confront it head on.

Bob Marley said: while you pointing fingers someone else is judging you.
Lebron maybe on the cover playing the sterotypical successful black man, but maybe he actually IS successful and black. You yourself have a picture in your sig of a black man holding gun, wearing a doo-rag and a name brand shirt. However, if you don't like the picture, then you don't like the picture, word. I don't deny you your way of thinking, because you tend to actually think. But also, Ive found nothing in the world is ever so simple as to be explained subjectively, the truth, i find, is often a variety of things at the same time.

To me it carries the black stereotypical of
' We're only good for/at sports. '
Like Sikotic said, why not the suitcase eh? When's the last time we saw a real black business man on the front of a well known magazine.

Well, to be fair, this is a Shape Issue about perfect bodies 'n shit. The black dude's ferocious look on this cover is one thing, but a black scientist or businessman would not exactly illustrate the point
