Equal justice/opportunities for all … i.e. our Constitution as implemented by our binary, opposing, mutually-exclusive, obstructive, political system that somehow puts party first after every election.
Down the Up Staircase . .Otis’s first attempt at an elevator ? Front steps to the Justice Department ? Building code violation ? Aren’t you the guys who built the dike that had a crack ?
This is an interesting cartoon. HOW do I interpret it?
1. People of color are held down, and fight to ascend the stairs to success. Kept off the rungs, they scale them from the side, working and scaling it like a mountain to conquer. That seems to be what most of you see.
2. Couldn’t it also be interpreted as they are trying to skip the rungs of work and jump up the stairs without ascending like the others? You can see the scaling guy on the left can easily walk around to the front of the stairs.
I agree with the first sentiment, but that other interpretation is there too. If comments didn’t start early, billy bob or some red cap wearing cheeto would say that.
Just an observation, but while working 15+ years in Info Tech, every Black Supervisor worth his salt, that I ever worked for, had at least 4 years of military service.

For a more authentic effect. The guys on the ropes should have a “Karen” hanging on their leg.

The guys with the ladders are really riding escalators.

If you are working from the bottom, you never get higher than the “glass ceiling”.
