Swedish Culture Minister Celebrates With LIVE Genital Mutilation Cake

"STOCKHOLM (FRIA TIDER). A macabre scene with racist undertones took place on Saturday when Swedish minister of culture Lena Adelsohn Liljeroth attended a tax funded party for the Stockholm cultural elite. The self-proclaimed "anti-racist" Liljeroth declared the party officially started by slicing a piece of a cake depicting a stereotypical African woman.

(Minister) Lena Adelsohn Liljeroth was invited to open the festivities by performing a clitoridectomy on the cake, which she did by slicing off the part of the cake depicting female genitalia. She then proceeded to feed that part of the cake to a performance artist, done up in blackface, his head protruding through the table." (here)

Sometimes you just have to see things with your own eyes to believe that someone with intelligence and authority actually thought it was a good idea. YouTube below: WARNING: VIDEO IS DISTURBING!!!

    Well, the best I can say is I'm horrified - but what could they have been thinking? I can't think of any context where this makes sense - the "humor" of genital mutilation, the blackface, the over-the-top racism of the character.

    I don't pretend to understand people, but I'm still dumbfounded by the ways they keep being cruel, demeaning, and dehumanizing.

    I don't even know where to begin on this!

    What were they thinking?!?

    Why would they think this was appropriate in any way? How many people did this idea go through? It had to be a lot, this is a government party and it is huge? Why is everyone in the picture so delighted?
