This organization is currently promoting it's
leftist extremist multi-cultural, anti-Texan
agenda with a propaganda display masquerading
as an art exibit at the
Austin Museum of Art at Laguna Gloria.
Don't give them anything.

Other than their use of the word "diversity",
what is the basis of your claim that the
exhibition is
1 - leftist?
2 - extremist?
3 - anti-Texan?
Diversity may indeed imply multicultural,
but I did not see anything in their post
or their earlier posts to indicate that the
description you use is warranted. What is
the source of your information?
Note: leftist, extremist, anti-Texan and
multi-cultural [sic] are not synonyms.
Propaganda is just a word for your
opponent's (mis)information.

I urge you to back and re-read the entire post.
It drips with Liberal extremist code words
and phrases, not confined to the
"let's debunk the Texan myth" slant,
or the old "diversity" red herring.

I ran across this announcement in the R.A.F. newsgroup, where it
may or may not belong, since R.A.F. addresses a universal forum
and the competition is limited to a geographical area and those
residing in it.
I am appalled that the usual negative cynicism often found in the
Texas and Austin newsgroups has now been inflicted on the R.A.F.
group so all the world can see Austin Texas' dirty underwear.
It should be a lesson to the original poster to NOT cross-post in
an example such as this announcement. Much better to post
individually, and thereby limit the cross-posting of replies to pertinent
newsgroups and not the whole spectrum.

Thanks Rick. They certainly have managed to embarass this
not-easily-embarassed Texan, and an Austinite at that. (As
everyone who reads R.A.F. regularly knows.)

Yes, but is it art?

Art lives down the street. He lets me borrow his tools.
(I was thrown out by the bouncer at an Austin Arts Awards fest back in
'79 for saying this to the bouncer who asked me what my connection
with the *Austin Arts Community* was. I was there to recieve an
award for illustration of books. Most arts orgs have tiny senses of
humour. If any.)
And Charles, multi-cultural usually means the food will be better...
if the vegans aren't in charge. Menudo, tamales and chitterlings.
Oh my!
