Caricature Defined
What is a caricature? “a picture, description, etc., ludicrously exaggerating the peculiarities or defects of persons or things,” www.dictionary.com . “Caricature is the distorted presentation of a person, type, or action. Commonly, a salient feature or characteristic of the subject is seized upon and exaggerated, or features of animals, birds, or vegetables are substituted for parts of the human being, or analogy is made to animal actions. Generally, one thinks of caricature as being a line drawing and meant for publication for the amusement of people to whom the original is known; the personal trait is usually present,” https://www.britannica.com/art/caricature-and-cartoon .
The name Yakima originates from the Yakama Nation Native American tribe. It's nothing derogatory like Washington Red Skins. They should keep it.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your comment. I certainly agree that the name is not the derogatory part. If you can clarify, it seems as though you are referring to the name of the City of Yakima and aren't referring to the actual logo image. Is that correct? If so, this isn't a campaign to change the name of the city but to remove the Native man in a headdress image from the Yakima police department logo.
