What Mandela would say to the Mexican president

-

Mexican President Peña: Mexico will honor Mandela by being                            more egalitarian.

Mandela (from the grave): Uh-huh...start with the numerous                            black people there.

Speaking from experience, I can tell you that Mexicans are very color-conscious -- and far from being above racism. There is a small population of native born black people in the country but from the stares and pointed fingers I get (even when I have my shirt on) it is evident seeing real-live black persons is still a novelty. Just to be clear, the year is now 2013. 

What do you make of it: think the cartoon is making a point of color injustice or economic injustice?

It's uniquely shaped, that's for sure; a bit cumbersome and tricky to apply (good things come to those who wait?) and, honestly, reminds me of Saran Wrap -- minus the lubrication.

I was made, by the law, a criminal, not because of what I had done, but because of what I stood for, because of what I thought, because of my conscience.
