A clever cartoon combining two issues of concern to black people in one illustration shows we are not taken seriously. COVID-19 which kill blacks at 4x the rate of whites along with the death of George Floyd. Apparently it upset 1000 other people so some newspapers dropped the cartoon and decided to issue an apology claiming the cartoon was "offensive"
The cartoon show how systemic issues are dismissed as "oh those people are just complaining again" The illustrators sent out a tweet the they do not apologize for this cartoon.

An artist's BLM cartoon was pulled, and an unendorsed apology ran in its place
“This is a complete step back in the wrong direction,” the artist said.
