That's for when it's "art". When the message goes against the mandated mission, they call it "vandalism".
Seeing african tribes as barbarians didnt stop the british from stealing their art tho.
That's because it didn't violate the narrative. And stealing it enforced theirs.
I guess that does make sense yeah.
The mere existence of African tribes “violates” a colonial, western mindset. It is the scary unknown that they seek to control and classify.
They've always called ~~Banksey~~ Banksy a vandal.
