This is a painting by Thomas Cole. It is titled "The Oxbow." E 'was made in 1836 and symbolizes the journey of the American west. On the right side of the picture all is bright, there is life, there is the river, in short, that part was "civilized" after the 'arrival of the future saviors of the world. On the left there is that ugly stain Black has yet to be enlightened by reason and by divine mandate of the now ex-colonies.
In fact there was a black spot behind the people who already inhabited these lands for thousands of years: the so called "American Indians" and the "civilizing" have largely wiped out and imprisoned in a small number of reservations to say the least humiliating . Soon will come the post over the red man, and is ready for the second Japanese monster, but I do not think to do:)
PS I know someone sent me an e-mail to 'address everberz @ gmail. it by clicking the link on the left to regard the "Report to the custom." I do not have this mail because gave me problems. Write me up alberz85@hotmail.it .
