  • Image of “howiloveya” [Screen Print on Newspaper]

Mickey Mouse made his screen debut in 1928, one year after Al Jolson’s talkie “The Jazz Singer” was released. The similarities between Mickey and white blackface performers such as Jolson are striking—and disturbing. The poster proposes that Mickey Mouse’s “origin story” is racist, and that The Walt Disney Company profits from this racist caricature. The poster is screen printed on the stock listings in newspapers to reenforce the theme of profit.
