So today I got a job where I had to produce a rubylith for some screenprinting for a local gang here. They wanted their logo (a bulldog head wearing a helmet) screenprinted onto some sleeves and hoods. This ain't no small gang either, its a nationwide thing.
The existing artwork was too big, and it wasn't on record, so I scan in what I have, and proceed to clean it up.
It feels weird in the year 2004 that I have to redesign a symbol of such hatred and oppression, the Nazi Party logo, the Swastika.
Thats right, here I am, drawing up the Swastika which sits on the helmet this bulldog is wearing. Should I be offended ? I don't really know.
But here is the kicker...
Most people in this gang are black.
